Sanders Raises $7.1 Million After New Hampshire Win

[marmar]

(Bloomberg) Nothing fills the presidential coffers like success.

Fresh off his win in the New Hampshire primary, Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders raised what his campaign is calling a record-breaking amount of campaign donations, hauling in $7.1 million in a little more than 24 hours.

Sanders used his victory speech in Concord, New Hampshire, to make a direct fundraising appeal to voters.

“I'm going to hold a fundraiser right here, right now, across America,” Sanders told his crowd and a television audience of millions Tuesday night. “My request is please go to BernieSanders.com and contribute. Please help us raise the funds we need, whether it's $10 bucks, $20 bucks, or $50 bucks. Help up us raise the money we need to take the fight to Nevada, South Carolina, and the states on Super Tuesday.”

Sanders has funded much of his campaign on small individual donations, rather than the larger checks collected by Hillary Clinton fundraisers. His campaign also stands against super-PACs, outside groups that are allowed to collect unlimited donations in order to promote candidates, including Sanders's rival, Clinton. ................(more)
