Money shocker! Hillary Clinton's campaign debt soars to $31 million
Clinton's campaign debt has now soared to nearly $31 million, according to numbers crunched early this morning by The Times' campaign finance guru, Dan Morain.
She added another $9.5 million in unpaid bills to vendors this past month alone, pushing her total debt to vendors and herself to the new astronomical figure, about a 50% debt increase in one month.
Obama raised $31 million in April for the primary, with an additional $600,000 for the general election.
The very impressive "numbers inside the numbers":
New donors in April: 200,00094% of contributions were under $200
93% of contributions were $100 or less
77% of contributions were $50 or less
52% of contributions were $25 or less
Number of donors to the Obama campaign overall at the end of April: 1.475 million
Number of contributions given: 2,929,000 million
Average donation: $91
Cash on Hand: $37.3 million (plus an additional $9.2 million for the general election)
McCain raised $18 million in April, a little over half of Obama's haul.
Which the McMedia reported widely as "McCain Has Record Fundraising Month"
