editDespite being touted as a formidable candidate, Nestande received criticism from other Republicans about his poor fundraising, which left him with only $235,000 in cash on hand after the primary, with Ruiz reporting more than $1.9 million in the bank at the same time.[220]
Ruiz had also received much praise for assisting airline passengers in distress on two separate flights in July and October.
