SUPER TUESDAY VICTORY GENERATES MORE THAN $4 MILLION ONLINE IN SINGLE DAY
Contributions pour in from new donors throughout America
The Clinton campaign today announced that it raised more than $4 million online in the day after polls closed on Super Tuesday. It was Hillary’s biggest single day of contributions since the campaign’s launch.
The campaign had set a goal of raising $3 million in three days -- and exceeded its target in less than 24 hours. The new goal is $6 million in 72 hours.
"We are gratified for this tremendous outpouring of support, “said Clinton Campaign Internet Director Peter Daou. “From over a million volunteer hours to millions of dollars in contributions from thousands of online donors across the country, Sen. Clinton's grassroots support is a key part of her campaign's success."
In the past 48 hours, more than 35,000 donors have contributed to the campaign, helping Hillary keep pace with the combined fundraising power of Sen. Obama’s campaign, MoveOn, and Sen. Kerry’s 3 million person email list – to which Sen. Obama now has access.
