Since launching (click here) her campaign, Hillary Clinton has been on a frenzied, money-raising spree -- and it looks like it paid off.
The Democratic presidential candidate has raised more than $45 million
in donations in just the first three months of her campaign alone,
according to a Clinton campaign official familiar with the campaign’s
second-quarter FEC filings.
This impressive number is nearly half of the campaign’s goal to raise $100 million by the end of the year.
Clinton’s campaign did not provide the official filings, which will be
made available to the public in two weeks, but if their number holds
true, the campaign says it would break the record for the most primary
money raised by a candidate during the first quarter in the race.
As we all know though, money doesn’t grow on trees and reaching this number didn’t come easy....
