Rep. Dr. Jasmine Clark, Candidate for Georgia's 13th Congressional District, Raises $165k from Nearly 3,000 Individual Donors in First Month of Campaign

Unprecedented grassroots support leads to Dr. Clark to outraise 22- year incumbent Rep. David Scott in just 29 days

LILBURN, GA– Today, Rep. Dr. Jasmine Clark (D-Lilburn) announced that her campaign has

raised nearly $165,000 since launching on June 2nd. With an average contribution of $39 from

nearly 3,000 individual donors, Dr. Clark’s campaign is off to the fastest start of any candidate

for Georgia’s 13th Congressional District.

“I’m truly floored by the support that this campaign has received in only 29 days since I entered

the race,” said Dr. Clark. “This is a people-powered campaign and I cannot be more thankful for each and every person who said yes to sending a fighter and a scientist to Washington to fight against the Republican assault on our institutions and the truth.”

“There’s only one candidate in the race generating the momentum and grassroots energy needed to win and lead the fight against Donald Trump’s agenda in Congress–and that’s Jasmine Clark,” said Jake Field, Dr. Clark’s Campaign Manager. “Dr. Clark is a proven winner and she’s on track to do it again.”

The campaign has donations from every county in the 13th Congressional District. Clark’s 2,960

individual donors massively outnumber the incumbent, who reported only $141 in donations of

less than $100 and nearly every dime from corporate DC PACs. Dr. Clark also outraised Rep.

Scott by more than $100,000, despite only being in the race for 29 days.
