“We made history at Mar-A-Lago,” Lake said on X.
We made history at Mar-A-Lago.
A million dollars in one day.
Thanks to everyone who made this possible.
Both the White House and Senate majorities run through Arizona.
We need all hands on deck to save America from the radical left.https://t.co/rAVvdrkZP7 pic.twitter.com/FAAhBqFu0F

According to sources who spoke to Breitbart, Ohio Senate candidate Bernie Moreno held the previous record for a non-incumbent of $350,000.
Kari Lake has not released fundraising figures for the first quarter of 2024. However, as reported by The Gateway Pundit, Lake announced in January that her campaign raised a whopping $2.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2023 after announcing his candidacy on October 10.

Kari Lake is also leading in general election polls, a trend that has remained unchanged since before she announced her Senate candidacy.
Incumbent Kyrsten Sinema announced she will not run for re-election last month, leaving Kari Lake and Ruben Gallego (D) in a race where Kari Lake wins regardless, according to a recent Rasmussen poll:
The latest survey by @Rasmussen_Poll proves that any way you slice it, with Sinema or without, I’m banging @RubenGallego.
The people of Arizona despise it @JoeBidenand they will not send the radical (Ruben) who allowed it to the US Senate.

Breitbart reports,
Ohio Senate candidate Bernie Moreno previously held the record with a haul of $350,000 earlier this year, according to sources.
The massive haul gives Lake a boost ahead of the new quarter, just seven months until Election Day.
Gallego, the expected Democratic nominee for Arizona’s Senate seat, raised $3.3 million last quarter for a total of $9.6 million in cash, his campaign announced.
Lake leads Gallego in a hypothetical general election matchup, according to a poll conducted in February for Lake’s campaign.
