How Much of Warren's $24.6 Million Haul Came From Big Donor Fundraisers?

[DrFunkenstein]

Isn't that the reason her finance director resigned - because she was cutting off the “significant cash stream”?

Has she gone back on her pledge? How could she possibly outraise Biden by $9 million without the fancy-pants fundraisers that are a hallmark of the modern Democratic Party?

What gives?

1. She is not Holding Big Donor Fundraisers

She has indicated that if nominated she would do such fundraisers because she will not engage in " unilateral disarmament " in the fight against Trump

3. That doesn't make any sense.

If big dollar fundraisers are bad in the primary why are they ok in the GE?

5. Exactly.

It's like Sanders saying he doesn't do big dollar fundraisers and then shows up at an extremely high end restaurant to talk to a bunch of multi millionaires who have maxed out donations.

They need to quit this little fundraiser as optics game.

9. I agree with your points. The issue should be the character of the donors and whether

they are looking for favors. A rich person who gives because he or she fully believes in Democratic Party goals and objectives should NEVER be pushed away because they are rich, and our candidates need to be clear that many rich people donate because they are democrats and are not looking for favors or an inside hand.

2. She held the big donor fund raisers during her senate run

from what I've read she then put it into her presidential run, after she told the people of Mass that she wasn't running for President.

4. I really don't care.

I wish she would be more receptive to big donor fundraisers. Seems her position here is only outlined through the primary.

6. Her core supporters care.

"fundraising numbers illustrate the financial strength of the party’s most progressive wing and a rejection of more traditional approaches to pressing donors for money"
will come back to edit for source, or not, cause this is just an opinion, but happens to be one I think is true.

7. There is no way to quantify it.

Warren also presses donors for money.

8. I'm happy she's got her 26 or is it 28 dollar donations

but her message re. post primary donations could see a great drop in enthusiasm for a Dem victory.
