Democrats are shattering records and raising massive sums of cash as they gear up for the 2026 midterms, with eyes on flipping both the House and the Senate.

Not only are individual candidates announcing whopping figures for the first quarter of the year, but small-dollar donations have skyrocketed in a warning to Republicans in power that Americans are fed up enough to donate despite the high cost of living.

ActBlue, the platform used by Democratic candidates and causes, announced that it raised $568 million from January through March, the strongest first quarter fundraising in its history, just one more sign of a potential blue wave this fall. The average donation was just $38.

It included $391 million for federal campaigns ahead of the midterms and $119 million for state and local candidates.

1. Isn't that something..............

I keep seeing articles that Democrats are failing on donations and GQP are super duper.

2. Not sure how to square it away

Maybe organizations like DNC are lagging behind individual candidates or causes?
