According to FEC records, the RNC raised $30.7 million in May, whereas the DNC raised $22.6. The DNC also spent more than the RNC, $19.4 million to the RNC’s $30.7 million expenditures.
The National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC) and the National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) both raised millions of dollars more than the Democratic committees.
Where the Republican committees raised $25 million, the Democratic committees raised $22.6 million.
The Trump campaign also raised millions of dollars throughout May.
While the Biden reelection campaign raised $85 million in May, Trump raised $141 million.
In the 24 hours following Trump’s May 30 conviction, the Republican candidate raised $53 million. Separately, Trump’s Super PAC raised $69 million.
Trump also raised $12 million during a recent event in San Francisco.
“In 2016, the number of people from Silicon Valley I knew who supported Trump was a sample of one…” Jacob Helberg, an adviser to data analytics provider Palantir, said.
“Today I count them in the dozens, if not more than that. Over the course of the past six months, we’ve started to see the dam break,” Helberg continued.
