'We (you) are out-performing expectations at every turn,' Buttigieg tweeted Monday.

2020 Democratic presidential candidate, announced Monday that he raised more than $7 million since launching his presidential exploratory committee in January.

"This is just a preliminary analysis, but our team’s initial report shows we raised over $7 million dollars in Q1 of this year," Buttigieg."We are out-performing expectations at every turn. I'll have a more complete analysis later, but until then: a big thank you to all our supporters." Buttigieg was the first 2020 Democratic candidate to announce his fundraising haul for the first quarter of 2019, an important indicator of a candidate's viability in what's shaping up to be a crowded Democratic field. All of the candidates have until April 15 to release their fundraising totals from the first quarter, which spans Jan. 1 to March 31.

Other Democratic candidates were quick to announce their initial hauls after launching their presidential bids, with former Texas Rep. Beto O'Rourkeearlier this month in his first 24 hours as a presidential candidate. Vermont independent Sen. Bernie Sanders came in a close second last month, with $5.9 million in his first day as a candidate.

Sen. Kamala Harris of California initially collected $1.5 million and Sen. Amy Klobuchar of Minnesota raised $1 million in 48 hours, as did former Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper. Gov. Jay Inslee of Washington raised more than $1 million in the first few days. Sen. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts raised at least $300,000 on New Year's Eve, her first partial day in the race, according to filings from the online donation clearinghouse ActBlue.

Wow! But can he defeat Trump? I can just imagine presidentbubblehead attacking the mayor (and unjustly) on a number of superficial things. realDonaldTrump is a pig and has no class at all.

PeteButtigieg GOPETEGO

TheRickWilson jonathancapehart Boutique issues? SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO bored with republicans and former republicans telling democrats what to do. Go clean up your own house.

He seems like a genuinely nice guy. It's great that there is a candidate talking about Liberal Christianity. The right has claimed ownership to Christianity for way too long. Christ lived his life preaching justice and equality, not separating families and cruelty to outsiders

So What!
