COTTONWOOD FALLS -- Today, Rob Wasinger, Republican candidate for Congress in the first district of Kansas, announced that he has raised over $106,000 during the third quarter and added over 1,000 new donors, making the fundraising period his best yet.

"I am thankful for the generosity of contributors to my campaign and I look forward to continue spreading a message of economic prosperity for western Kansas while ensuring our way of life," said Wasinger. "I pledge to continue to run a positive, issue-based campaign, and look forward to representing the great people of the Big First in Congress."
