Hi folks, it’s Ghazala Hashmi, Democrat for Lt. Gov.

Today, my campaign released its Q1 fundraising report. Here’s what it shows:

Our campaign received nearly 1,000 individual contributions, more than my top two opponents (Stoney & Rouse) combined.
64% of our contributions were $100 or less, compared to just 26% for Stoney
We have $656,000 in cash-on-hand, leading Stoney’s total by more than $130,000

I’m so grateful to each of you who pitched in to support my campaign. Thank you!

(If you haven’t already donated — or if you have, but want to pitch in again, you can do so here.)

This report comes on the heels of recent news that polling shows our campaign leading the race.

I’m also the only candidate endorsed by labor unions and abortion rights groups.

Here’s the bottom line: We have momentum. And at a time when Trump, Musk, and Glenn Youngkin are attempting to take unprecedented and unconstitutional control of our government, we must remember how the Constitution begins: ‘We the people.’

Our success in this report demonstrates that the people are on our side and that our campaign is ready to both win the primary and defeat the Republican candidate in November.

Now, I must ask you to sustain our momentum by pitching in $20 or more to support my campaign. With just weeks to go until voting begins, we can’t afford to slow down for even one second.
