RNC Breaks Another Fundraising Record, Surpasses $200 Million for Midterm Effort
Quote:The Republican National Committee surpassed the $200 million fundraising mark in record time for a midterm election cycle, leaving its Democratic counterpart more than $100 million behind.
After raising $13.9 million in June, a record for that month in a non-presidential year, the RNC reached $213 million for the 2017-2018 election cycle, according to a party official. As of the latest numbers, the RNC has $50.7 million cash on hand and zero debt.
"What I see when I travel the country is that Americans continue to be enthusiastic about President Trump and the Republican agenda," RNC chair Ronna McDaniel said. "That enthusiasm has allowed for me to grow our war chest and invest it into what has become the biggest ground game in our Party’s history."
The RNC has five times the cash on hand that the DNC has. A Democratic Party official said its total fundraising haul for the year is only $101 million.
The RNC and DNC will both make their complete fundraising numbers public Friday when they file with the Federal Election Commission.
