“Fueled by a self-funded campaign by Total Wine & More co-owner David Trone of Potomac that already has exceeded $9 million, total spending in the District 8 Democratic primary race now stands at more than $13.7 million—putting it in play for this year’s costliest House race nationally.
With the primary looming April 26, disclosure reports filed with the Federal Election Commission late Thursday—and covering the period from Jan. 1 through April 6—show the other two leading candidates in the Democratic contest, former Marriott International executive Kathleen Matthews of Chevy Chase and state Sen. Jamie Raskin of Takoma Park, have together added another $3.4 million in spending to the contest since announcing their candidacies in the spring of 2015.”
