The numbers from the Hillary Clinton campaign for fundraising Q4 are out… An impressive haul and a major success for her. There is already a diary about this on the rec list so I will focus on a different aspect.
Let’s put things into perspective here.
Clinton raised $37 million for her own election efforts AND she raised an extra $18 million dollars for downballot Democrats, helping the fundraising of the Democratic National Committee and state Democratic Parties. For perspective, the biggest fundraiser for the GOP in Q4 (Cruz) raised $19 million for his campaign.
So … Hillary Clinton has raised as much as the biggest fundraiser on the GOP side FOR DOWNBALLOT DEMORCATS. The goal of this website is to elect more and better Democrats. Our frontrunner is doing her damndest best to spearhead that effort. She has been doing it since August.
I am proud of Hillary Clinton!
Update. I will change my diary title just as soon as Bernie Sanders registers as a Democrat.
