CNN:

Hillary Clinton raised $27 million for her presidential campaign and an additional $13.5 million for the Democratic National Committee and state Democratic parties in May, the campaign said Wednesday. That gives her $42 million in the bank, just ahead of when she is expected to surpass the number of delegates needed to clinch the Democratic nomination.

"Thanks to the continued support of more than 1.3 million people across the country we have the resources we need to run a winning general election campaign and build on the smart investments we made during the primary," said Robby Mook, Clinton's campaign manager, in a press release.

The Clinton campaign also announced that they have now raised $62 million for the DNC and state parties through the Hillary Victory Fund, a joint fundraising agreement that the Clinton campaign has with the national Democratic body.

"Hillary Clinton remains focused on ensuring that she and Democrats up and down the ballot are able to mobilize millions of voters and win in November," Mook added.

In the past, when Sanders had a good haul, they announced it even before the filing deadline. Seems a bit quiet today...

1. BS is running out of money ... and Clinton is still hauling in the cash

I would bet that this quarter Secretary Clinton Campaign will take the lead in total fundraising cash ... she almost became equal with BS in campaign cash fundraising at the end of April.
