Falmouth Democrat Rep. Dylan Fernandes drew financial support last month from at least 12 lawmakers on Beacon Hill and two former representatives in his bid for a South Shore and Cape Cod Senate seat.

Records filed with the state’s campaign finance office show Fernandes pulled in roughly $1,950 from current state senators and representatives, a boost to what could be a competitive race for the Plymouth and Barnstable seat Sen. Susan Moran is not seeking reelection to as she pursues a county post.

Several of the legislators said they consider the donations an endorsement of Fernandes’ candidacy, including Sen. William Brownsberger, a Belmont Democrat who donated $200 and serves in Senate Democratic leadership.

“I think he’s been a good representative, he’s a hard working guy,” Brownsberger told the Herald Thursday while leaving the Senate Chamber.

Fernandes said it is “an honor” to have the support of colleagues in the House and Senate. In a statement earlier this week, Fernandes said he raised almost $84,000 in the first month of his campaign after earning an endorsement from Gov. Maura Healey.

“I have always been a collaborator who will work with anyone from anywhere to get things done for the people I represent and this early support from colleagues in both branches demonstrates that commitment,” he said in a statement to the Herald Thursday.

Sen. Barry Finegold, an Andover Democrat, donated $500 and said he is backing Fernandes.

“I think Dylan is great. I’ve seen what he’s done in the House. I think he’d be someone that can bring a lot of people together and work really hard and do great for the Cape. So it’s a big loss with (Moran) and I think Dylan can fill that,” Finegold told the Herald.

Sen. John Cronin, who donated $200, said he is supporting Fernandes because he would “be a great member of the Senate.”

“I’m going to work really hard to get him elected,” Cronin told the Herald Thursday. “I think his reputation for working with members, both in the House Chamber and across into the Senate, really precede him. And I think he’s got a reputation for collaboration and getting results. And I think he’d be a great, young addition to this chamber.”

Other lawmakers who donated include $250 from Rep. Daniel Carey, $100 from Sen. Brendan Crighton, $100 from Rep. Mindy Domb, $100 from Rep. Antonio Cabral, $100 from Rep. Kate Donaghue, $100 from Sen. Paul Mark, $100 from Rep. Tram Nguyen, $100 from Rep. Lindsay Sabadosa, and $100 from Rep. Tommy Vitolo.

Melrose Mayor Paul Brodeur, who also served in the Legislature, donated $100 while former Rep. Daniel Cullinane forked over $200.

At least one Republican has officially jumped into the Senate race, Bourne School Committee member Kari MacRae, who told the Herald earlier this week she had raised a little over $1,500 last month.

Rep. Mathew Muratore, a Plymouth Republican, has said he is considering running for the Senate seat, but has not made an official announcement.

Denise Spencer Wallace of Plymouth filed paperwork Wednesday to run as a Republican for Muratore’s seat but told the Herald she has not yet made a formal decision. Two Democrats, Michelle Badger and Scott Hokanson, have also filed for Muratore’s seat.
