Over $112 Million: DGA Announces Record-Shattering 2025 Fundraising

Historic fundraising haul is nearly 50% more than what the DGA raised in 2021

The Democratic Governors Association is announcing today it raised over $112 million across all entities in 2025, giving the DGA even more momentum heading into 2026 as voters and donors continue to recognize the importance of electing more Democratic governors across the 36 governors’ races this year.

This historic amount is nearly 50% more than what the DGA raised in 2021 – the last comparable year – driven by a major increase in grassroots and individual donations and first time donors.

Key stats include:

  • Contributions came from nearly half a million unique grassroots donors in 2025, 59% of whom were first-time donors. This marks a 69% increase in unique donors from 2021.
  • Major donor contributions more than tripled (a 241% increase) compared to 2021.

 

  • DGA had its best single online fundraising day ever, with half a million dollars raised.

This fundraising success allowed the DGA to be the largest outside spender in both Virginia and New Jersey last year, with the DGA investing over $10 million in Virginia and the DGA’s affiliated Independent Expenditure Greater Garden State investing over $30 million in New Jersey.

“Every day, Democratic governors are hard at work to deliver real results for the American people while standing up to the chaos in Washington – and that’s why they are some of the most popular elected officials in our country. Today’s announcement makes it clear that the Democratic ecosystem is more fired up than ever to elect more Democratic governors and continue that vital work across the country,” said DGA Executive Director Meghan Meehan-Draper. “The DGA has proven we know how to win tough races, and with this enthusiastic fundraising support, we will have the resources to go on offense and grow the ranks of Democratic governors this year.”
