MADISON, Wis. (WSAU) — Governor Scott Walker still owes more than $800,000 on his presidential campaign that saw him spend about $90,000 a day on average.
His latest campaign report filed with the Federal Elections Commission shows that the campaign paid down about $91,000 since last month. The debt was $1.2 million at the end of 2015 for the 71-day campaign, which ended last September.
Walker has deflected any talk of him being a choice for disgruntled Republicans upset with presumptive presidential nominee Donald Trump and has insisted that he would endorse Trump, should he become the party’s official nominee in July.
The governor has said that he agrees with House Speaker Paul Ryan of Janesville that the delegates at the Republican convention should be allowed to vote with their conscience and be unbound by primary results. Walker will vote for Ted Cruz on the first ballot of July’s convention because of Cruz’s victory in Wisconsin’s primary.
