Sanders raises $36M in February; eyes $4M more by Super Tuesday

[datguy_6]

Bernie Sanders is touting new fundraising totals for his Democratic presidential campaign and launching a one-day drive to reach $40 million in February that will “absolutely shock the political establishment.”

Sanders said in a statement on Monday that the campaign raised an “impressive” $36 million from 1.2 million individuals in February.

He wants to end the month with $40 million, however, and is looking for a one-day, $4 million haul.

“It's a goal that I don't know if we can make, but I think it's very important that we try,” Sanders said.

“W]e are still up against the billionaire class and their super PACs who are doing everything they can to stop our movement,” he added.

Sanders’s fundraising pitch comes ahead of the Federal Election Commission’s midnight deadline for February fundraising.

1. I read that he's burning through cash and...

Hillary has a 2:1 cash on hand advantage. He spent 2x more on NV and SC than Hillary and lost both.

3. K/R

I want Bernie to go to the very end and we all must help him do so. Push the agenda that the 99% does have a voice and if Bernie does not win he will blaze the trail for others to follow.
