Trump campaign raises $46 million in fourth quarter, dwarfing Democrats' hauls
President Donald Trump's campaign announced on Thursday that it raised $46 million in the final quarter of 2019, which is far bigger than any quarterly total announced so far by any Democratic candidate.
Earlier Thursday, Sen. Bernie Sanders' campaign revealed he had raised more than $34.5 million during the fourth quarter. This marks the best fundraising quarter for the Trump campaign in the 2020 election cycle, according to a press release. The campaign also said it had $102.7 million in cash on hand heading as 2020 begins.
The figures unveiled Thursday do not include money raised by the Republican National Committee or any joint fundraising committees. In the third quarter, Trump's campaign and the Republican National Committee pulled in a total of $125 million, which surpassed the $105 million second-quarter total.The Trump totals underscore the uphill climb the extensive Democratic field faces as each candidate competes for dollars as well as voters.
