House Dems raise record $11.3 million in May
PoliticoThe House Democrats’ campaign arm brought in a record $11.3 million in May, the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) announced on Tuesday.
The DCCC said it raised $3 million more last month than in May of 2016. Of the committee’s total May fundraising haul this year, the DCCC raised about $3.3 million through online donations.
Since the beginning of the 2018 cycle, the DCCC has raised about $162 million, with nearly $60 million of that haul coming through online contributions. The committee ended May with $60.6 million cash on hand.
“The outpouring of support from grassroots donors is further evidence that Democrats are unified behind the goal of taking back the House,” said Rep. Ben Ray Luján (N.M.), the DCCC's chairman.

Unfortunately, a chunk of this cash is being wasted because of large Primary candidate fields.
