Senate candidate Kari Lake recently bolstered her war chest in an incredibly successful fundraiser on Wednesday.
The influx of cash comes as Lake campaigns to fill outgoing Senator Kyrsten Sinema’s seat against Democratic Rep. Ruben Gallego.
"She is a spectacular woman. She's going to do a great job. She's worked hard. She's gave up a lot."
Thank you for the kind words at Mar-A-Lago last night, President Trump.
We're going to keep working hard, and we won't stop until we save Arizona.

Last night was amazing in Mar-a-lago. It was great seeing DJT, Kari Lake, Roseanne, and Roger Stone.
I'd totally post pictures of me with them, but I refuse to ask my more famous friends for pics when we visit (my fans and wife hate that I don't take more pics).

Whether this recent haul will be enough to get Lake into the Senate is the question now.
But the record-breaking fundraiser has certainly given her some momentum.
Kari Lake was at Mar-a-Lago tonight together with President Trump, and she allegedly raised one million dollars.

ABC News has more on Kari Lake’s latest success:
Kari Lake, the Senate candidate backed by former President Donald Trump in Arizona, raised just over $1 million at a fundraiser for her campaign at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate Wednesday, two campaign officials told ABC News.
The single-night haul is significant for Lake and gives her a financial boost as she seeks to fill the seat of outgoing Sen. Kyrsten Sinema in November.
Lake, who is expected to be the GOP nominee, is likely to face Democratic Rep. Ruben Gallego in a closely-watched matchup that could help determine which party controls the narrowly divided Senate.
Lake has been a longtime ally and staunch supporter of Trump.
