Johnson’s campaign says it’s raised $170,000 and has almost $80,000 left in its account.
Fargo brought in around $51,000 but has just $15,000 on hand to spend.
Both campaigns are technically in debt for more money than they have in the bank. Johnson still lists the earlier $500,000 loan he made to his campaign as a debt, while Fargo owes about $28,000.
Johnson has now raised almost $1.3 million since he entered the race in March – although that includes his loan. Fargo has only brought in about a quarter as much.
