Democratic National Committee reports over $10 million raised from grassroots in September
The DNC says it collected more than $10 million from small-donor contributions in September, a boost as the midterm race approaches.
According to the Democratic National Committee, grassroots supporters contributed over $10 million during September. Party officials note that this amount exceeds what was raised in the same month during the last three midterm cycles. The surge comes weeks before the November 3 elections, where control of Congress is at stake. Democrats hope the inflow signals voter enthusiasm after a period of fundraising weakness under President Donald Trump's second term. The party has previously lagged behind Republicans and entered one outlet campaign season with debt.
Why it matters
Strong donor support could boost Democratic campaign resources ahead of crucial midterm elections.
