MADISON, Wis. (AP) -- A new report finds that 22 state lawmakers involved in recall and special elections last year raised $8.2 million dollars.

The Wisconsin Democracy Campaign report released Tuesday shows that it more than four-times the nearly $2 million raised by the rest of the Legislature last year.

When counting special partisan fundraising committees, $12.2 million was raised for the races in 2011. Two Republican incumbent state senators were defeated in recall elections.

Republican Sen. Alberta Darling raised the most at $1.3 million. She won her race. Fellow Republican Sen. Dan Kapanke raised the second most at $1.1 million. He was one of the two who were defeated.

The State Senate Democratic Committee was third highest at just over $1 million.
