Republican Gov. Parson has $3 million in campaign accounts

Republican Gov. Mike Parson hasn't announced whether he will seek a full term in 2020, but his fundraising outpaces that of those who were seeking the GOP nomination at this point in the 2016 race.
Parson has $3 million spread across two campaign accounts.
Parson became governor a year ago after his predecessor, Eric Greitens, resigned amid allegations of sexual and political misconduct.
Former Missouri House Speaker Catherine Hanaway had the most in her account at $1.2 million with 14 months to go before the 2016 GOP primary, according to Missouri Ethics Commission records. Businessman John Brunner, former Lt. Gov. Peter Kinder, and Greitens each had under $1 million.
Parson's accounts have taken in at least $250,000 since May 1.
