Romney/RNC Outraise Obama/DNC With Huge $76.8 Million Haul [View all]
Romney/RNC Outraise Obama/DNC With Huge $76.8 Million Haul
Mitt Romney and the RNC raised $76.8 million in May, easily outpacing $60 million from President Obama’s campaign and the DNC. With outside conservative groups alone already outspending the Obama campaign in swing states and Democrats begging donors for help, the money race is tilting quickly toward the GOP.
Romney and the RNC now have $107 million cash on hand, with $12 million of their monthly haul coming from donations less than $250.
“We are encouraged by the financial support from a broad range of voters,” Romney’s National Finance Chairman Spencer Zwick said in a statement. ”To them, whether they are Republican, Democrat, Independent, a first time political donor, or a former Obama donor, this is not just a campaign; it’s an opportunity for the country. It is clear that people aren’t willing to buy into ‘hope & change’ again. Voters are making an investment because they believe that it will benefit the country.”
