Former HP CEO Carly Fiorina’s (R) Senate campaign raised $1.7 million in the first quarter of the year, her campaign reported this morning. Fiorina, tied in GOP primary polls with former Rep. Tom Campbell (who entered the race in January after abandoning his run for Governor) has $2.8 million on hand for the final phase of the race toward California’s June 8 primary.

The $1.7 million total is a slight boost from Fiorina’s fourth quarter fundraising, when she brought in around $1.1 million. Fiorina is just one of several wealthy Republicans running for office in California this year, allowing her to bolster fundraising totals with her own fortune. Last year, she lent her campaign $2.5 million, though campaign officials have said they expect run the rest of the race without any more of Fiorina’s personal money.

The TPM Poll Average for the primary shows Campbell with 26.5%, Fiorina with 25.3% and conservative candidate Chuck DeVore with 8.1%
