State Sen. Julianne Ortman, R-Chanhassen, says her U.S. Senate campaign raised $375,000 during the first three months of 2014.

Campaign officials say that's a more than 300 percent increase over Ortman's 4th quarter 2013 fundraising.

Her fundraising total now stands at $610,000.  That's well below businessman and political newcomer Mike McFadden's $2.8 million total, but it is  much more than any of the other Republican Senate candidates have been able to muster.

McFadden said he ended March with $1.8 million dollars in campaign cash on hand. Ortman has not yet released her cash-on-hand number.
