U.S. Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto, D-Nev., raised $3.3 million for her reelection campaign in the fourth quarter of 2021, her office said.

She now has $10.4 million cash on hand, her office reported.

During the fourth quarter of 2021, 43,000 individuals made donations for a total of 106,000 individual contributions last year.

“With thousands of Nevadans working to reelect her, Senator Cortez Masto’s campaign will have the support necessary to reach every community across Nevada and win in November,” Tyler Langdon, the campaign’s financial director, said in a statement.

Fourth-quarter fundraising numbers for Republican candidates Adam Laxalt and Sam Brown have not been released.

Cortez Masto ranked No.6 in fundraising last year among candidates running for federal office in 2022.

Sen. Raphael Warnock, D-GA, ranked first with $44.2 million, followed by Sen. Timothy Scott, R-SC, at $31 million, Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., at $29.7 million, Sen. Marco Rubio, R-FL, at $19.1 million and Sen. Mark Kelly, D-Ariz., at $18.6 million, according to the Federal Election Commission.
