Congressman Rick Larsen raised $164,621 in donations for his re-election campaign during the latest reporting cycle, his campaign announced Friday.

The donations were received between July 1 and Sept. 30, and the Citizens to Elect Rick Larsen campaign also reported $621,437 cash on hand in the most recent Federal Election Commission report.

“I am humbled by the strong support to my campaign,” said Rep. Larsen, an Everett Democrat from the 2nd District.

“This strong support is proof that my priorities of job creation, getting our economy back on track, and protecting Social Security and Medicare are shared by those in Northwest Washington," he said. "In these tough times I remain committed to finding solutions for the people in the 2nd district.”

Larsen is running for his seventh term.
