Hillary for America Began June with More than $42 Million Cash on Hand

http://blog.4president.us/2016/hillary-clinton/

Today, Hillary for America (HFA) filed its June monthly FEC report covering the month of May. The report shows that HFA began June with more than $42 million in the bank after raising more than $28 million in May thanks to more than 650,000 contributions from about 430,000 people during the month. The average donation during May was about $44.

“We're starting the general election in strong financial shape thanks to the support of more than 1.3 million people and strategic investments that helped us conserve our resources,” said Hillary for America Campaign Manager, Robby Mook. "That grassroots support will be critical to our success and will ensure that we have the resources we need to communicate Hillary Clinton's message that we are stronger together.”

Conversely:

Donald Trump's campaign only has $1.3m cash on hand – as it happened

According to filings just released by the Federal Election Commission, Donald Trump’s presidential campaign only had $1.3 million in cash on hand at the beginning of the month, and raised a paltry $3.1 million during the filing period. The filings paint a dismal picture of Trump’s fundraising operations.
