MADISON, Wis. (AP) - Gov. Scott Walker’s re-election campaign says he has more than $4.2 million cash on hand heading into the re-election year, nearly four times as large as the entire Democratic field of candidates.

Combined with Lt. Gov. Rebecca Kleefisch and the state Republican Party, the cash on hand available to help re-elect Walker comes close to $7 million. Walker’s campaign did not immediately release how much he had raised during 2017.

His cash on hand this year is slightly less than the $4.6 million he had on hand headed into his last re-election in 2014.

In addition to Walker’s $4.2 million, Kleefisch had $1.4 million and the Wisconsin Republican Party’s state account had $1.2 million.
