ANDOVER, MA — Dan Koh’s campaign reported raising $204,680 in January, a total that exceeded the combined $127,312 raised by the six other Democrats competing in the September primary for Massachusetts’ Sixth Congressional District.
The January fundraising surge adds to more than $2 million Koh had already raised through the end of 2025, giving him a commanding financial position as the race enters the election year. January is typically viewed by campaigns as a critical early test of donor support and organizational strength, particularly in competitive primaries for open congressional seats.
Campaign finance reports filed with the Federal Election Commission show a steep drop-off after Koh. Mariah Lancaster raised $86,109 during the month, while Tram Nguyen reported $21,179. The remaining candidates — John Beccia, Rick Jakious, Jamie Belsito, and Beth Andres-Beck — each raised less than $6,000 in January:
- Dan Koh $204, 680
- Mariah Lancaster $86,109
- Tram Nguyen $21,179
- John Beccia$5,552
- Rick Jakious $4,976
- Jamie Belsito $4,932
- Beth Andres-Beck $4,564
The fundraising disparity underscores the uneven footing of the Democratic field as candidates prepare for a September primary that will likely determine the district’s next representative.
