DNC had $56 million on hand heading into May, a record for this point in any year

Source: CNBC

The Democratic National Committee went into May with over $56 million on hand, the most the committee says it has ever had in its war chest at this point in any year.

The DNC finished the month of April raising $15.6. million, according to figures first shared with CNBC by a committee spokesperson. The DNC plans to release more details of its fundraising haul in Federal Election Commission filings later on Thursday.

“The DNC will report $15.6 million raised in April, the highest off-year April fundraising ever. The DNC has $56.3 million cash on hand, the most the DNC has had at this point in any year,” the committee representative said in a statement.

The Republican National Committee, by comparison, raised over $13 million in April. Yet while the DNC raised more than the RNC last month, the GOP campaign arm went into May with significantly more cash on hand, FEC records show. The RNC had over $90 million on hand going into the month, according to the records.

They seem to be doing well without me. I'll target them later this year.
