Fundraising Reports

As far as fundraising goes, Obama's approximate $21 million raised this quarter is not far off what Hillary brought in, and he had 30,000 more donors than her. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/huff-w...campaign-money And he did not accept money from PAC's.

He's for real folks. Get used to it.

AZ--honest question--the website you posted doesn't say how much Obama raised or from where. Did you get that info elsewhere?

This article explains that none of the $ came from PAC's, etc. It also explains that Hillary's #'s may be inflated since many of her funds are earmarked for the general election. Barack's $ is for the primaries.

Here's the main page of Barack's website that shows the number of donors. Note that he hasn't had the benefit of Bill Clinton fundraisers pulling in $2.7 million in night like in New York recently:
