.ForecasterEnten explains the money raised by 2020 candidates in the first quarter of 2019 TheForecast Bernie Sanders: $18.2M Kamala Harris: $12M Beto O’Rourke: $9.4M Pete Buttigieg: $7.1M Elizabeth Warren: $6M
Cory Booker showed underwhelming small dollar support relative to the rest of the 2020 Democratic field in his first quarter fundraising report, with about 16% of his $5 million haul coming from contributions of $200 or less.
Booker’s campaign spent just under $1.8 million after his Feb. 1 entry to the race, mostly on payroll and salary, about $700,000, and digital consulting services, about $530,000. O'Rourke raised just under $9.4 million in the period, with about 59% of his contributions made in increments of $200 or less. $6.1 million of that came on the day he announced his entry to the race, on March 14, leaving him just over two weeks in the period to fundraise.
The Massachusetts senator made waves in the 2020 race with her primary fundraising pledge, part of an effort to highlight her commitment to fighting special interests. The scope of that pledge -- no fundraisers, dinners, receptions or phone calls with wealthy donors -- had enough of an impact to compel her finance director to resign in late March.
Gillibrand transferred $9.6 million from her senate campaign account, leaving just under $650,000 there, and enters the second quarter with about $10.2 million in the account of her presidential campaign. Still, Gillibrand had the second-most money available in her Senate campaign account at the beginning of 2019, with $10.3 million banked. She is behind only Warren, who had just over $11 million to bring to the race. That gives the New York Democrat some breathing room despite her lackluster Q1.Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders set the standard for small-dollar fundraising in the first quarter, bringing in about $18.2 million from individuals, 84% of which came in contributions under $200.
