Clinton outraises Sanders in AprilBy NICK GASS 05/02/16 08:29 AM EDT
Hillary Clinton outraised Bernie Sanders in the month of April, according to fundraising figures reported Monday by the Democratic front-runner's campaign.
Clinton's campaign took in a total of $36 million in April, of which $9.5 million went to the Hillary Victory Fund, a joint fundraising operation between the campaign, the Democratic National Committee, and state parties. Of that total, $26.4 million of the $36 million went to the Clinton campaign itself, which enters May with $30 million on hand.
By comparison, Sanders' team on Sunday reported raising $25.8 million in April, a steep drop from its $44 million total in March.

are dropping off? Could it be that reality is finally setting in? 'Cause they'd be great!

(7,633 posts)7. and hillary also send 10 millions
to the down ballot democrats. Instead of whinning about how the superdelegates are supporting Hillary maybe Bernie should have supported the party as well.

(9,148 posts)8. Just read that Sanders has only $17 million left in his campaign bank
Hope he saved some for the FEC!

(50,559 posts)10. I don't think anyone actually knows how much he has left
According to the FEC filing for the last reporting period, Bernie spent more than he received and STILL ended the period with more money than he started with. I realize I am in Remedial Bernie Math, but last I checked it's not possible to do that.

(9,148 posts)11. Whoa! That's a good way to get audited!
I want to hear them explain their bernie math to the FEC investigators.
Bad days for bernie on the horizon. No wonder he's still out their making up go-nowhere reasons to stay in the race.
