Obama Takes in More than $31 Million in April

May 20, 2008 8:05 PM

News has learned that Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., hauled in $31.9 million in April (including $600,000 for the general election) to continue his battle for the Democratic nomination against Sen. Hillary Clinton, D-N.Y. Two hundred thousand new donors joined Obama's effort last month.

Obama has an mighty $37.3 million on hand with $9.2 million tucked away for the general election.

Camp Obama proves (again) that big money comes in small packages. It's been a pattern since last year but the numbers are still impressive: 1.475 million total donors overall making 2.93 million contributions. The average contribution is $91.

The clicks come in small waves: 94% of the contributions to Obama's effort were under $200, 93% of contributions were $100 or less, 77% were $50 or less, and 52% were $25 or less.

Now we need to hear what Clinton did.

Spent on McDonalds in Kentucky.

:toast:

I would like to know if she is paying her Jan/Feb vendors yet.

Isn't this an April filing?

Also, I didn't figure he would rake in this much, as April was a tough month, with Wright and PA loss. Great news!

The Obama Party.
