Sanders campaign says it has raised $6 million in its first day

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) has raised $6 million since kicking off his 2020 presidential bid on Tuesday, his campaign said on Wednesday.

Sanders, who announced his second bid for president early Tuesday morning, raised more than $5.9 million in the first 24 hours of his campaign. Soon after the 24-hour mark, that number had risen to $6 million, according to his campaign.

The record-setting fundraising haul was powered by small-dollar donations, with the average contribution totaling just $27, his campaign said — a number mirroring the average donation size frequently touted by Sanders during his 2016 White House campaign.

In all, more than 225,000 individuals gave to the campaign in the first 24 hours following his announcement.

It's worth checking to see if the article, or some version of it, has been posted previously.

4. You took the time to link two threads with distinctly different articles and one without an article.

All to say I posted the same article?

All three articles say essentially the same thing.

9. It's true! I read it right after "he's not a Democrat"

11. I thought he was a Democrat in his home state

And a Democratic Socialist everywhere else. Best of both worlds so to speak. Such a scamp, our Bernie.
