May Fundraising: Obama Down, McCain Up


June 22nd, 2008

Fundraising numbers for the month of may are in and while Senator Obama raised $22 million, by any normal measure an amazing haul, it was his weakest month for the year and came as his rival Senator McCain pulled $21 million marking his best month of the year. The two are about equal, Obama with $33 million cash on hand to use until the convention and McCain $31.6 million cash on hand to use until the convention.

The numbers also showed that Senator Hillary Clinton’s personal campaign loans totaled $12.175 million. Interestingly enough Clinton also raised $23 million for the general election, money she cannot use to pay off her campaign debts or to pay back her personal loans.
