Warren campaign hits campaign fundraising goal, does not report total haul
Donate to Warren for POTUS with our DU ActBlue link here: https://secure.actblue.com/donate/duforwarren

Sen. Elizabeth Warrens (D-Mass.) presidential campaign announced Tuesday that it had hit its campaign fundraising goal for the first quarter of 2019 but declined to reveal how much money it had actually hauled in since her December announcement.
Were still crunching all the numbers, but we can already tell you that we hit our fundraising goal for Sundays deadline. With zero fundraisers with wealthy donors behind closed doors, zero support from PACs of any kind, and zero contributions from federal lobbyists, Warren Campaign Manager Roger Lau said in a statement to supporters.
The campaigns email follows a message to supporters Sunday that it was seeking 35,000 new contributions by midnight, the Federal Election Commission reporting deadline.
[W]e also know that if we hit our goal of 35,000 new donations by midnight tonight, well have the resources we need to keep powering our movement, the campaign said in the request. Thats how well make sure the Democratic primary is squarely focused on rebuilding the middle class, ending corruption in Washington, saving our democracy, and addressing the root causes of the rigged system that led to Donald Trump being in the White House.

(94,753 posts)1. That tells me the number isn't that impressive...
News reports indicate that Warren has been struggling with her rejection of high-dollar fundraising, hence the departure of her Finance Director.

We need to return to who can beat this guy instead of focusing on nitpicking with each other.
