It ain’t funny money. Here are the September fundraising numbers for the six major party committees (August numbers are here):
Committee | September Receipts | September Spent | Cash-on-Hand | Debt |
---|---|---|---|---|
DCCC | $7,052,003 | $3,043,706 | $14,746,361 | $4,000,000 |
NRCC | $3,414,949 | $3,298,499 | $4,316,993 | $2,000,000 |
DSCC | $5,920,930 | $2,504,799 | $10,310,148 | $2,499,500 |
NRSC | $3,205,680 | $3,128,879 | $5,182,334 | $0 |
DNC | $8,204,207 | $8,422,672 | $14,813,393 | $5,026,038 |
RNC | $9,053,101 | $11,099,550 | $18,924,409 | $0 |
After two months of trailing the NRSC in fundraising, the DSCC stormed back with a big month, putting a lot of distance between them and the GOP in the cash-on-hand pile. Perhaps the best bit of news, though, is that thanks to a strong July, the DNC outraised the RNC in the third quarter – the first time that’s happened in a quarter since 2Q 2004. So that you can see these numbers for yourself, below I’m also included a 3Q summary chart, with overall party totals at the bottom.
Committee | 3Q Raised | 3Q Spent | Cash-on-Hand | Debt |
---|---|---|---|---|
DCCC | $13,556,726 | $8,542,202 | $14,746,361 | $4,000,000 |
NRCC | $9,648,983 | $9,492,000 | $4,316,993 | $2,000,000 |
DSCC | $10,163,136 | $7,865,735 | $10,310,148 | $2,499,500 |
NRSC | $9,064,081 | $8,158,592 | $5,182,334 | $0 |
DNC | $24,383,195 | $22,287,674 | $14,813,393 | $5,026,038 |
RNC | $23,183,794 | $27,953,664 | $18,924,409 | $0 |
Dems | $48,103,057 | $38,695,611 | $39,869,902 | $11,525,538 |
GOP | $41,896,858 | $45,604,256 | $28,423,736 | $2,000,000 |
Dems raised more than the GOP in every committee? But I thought 2010 was going to be the new 1994!?
In all seriousness though, people need to stop worrying, Rome wasn’t built in one day, and it won’t be demolished in one election.
Does anyone know anything about these numbers?
this is great news….for John McCain
so heavily in September, I wonder? Just recruiting & organizing?
They spent 98% of what they raised in Sept.
