Bernie's campaign uses Act Blue too. This just keeps a total of $ donated by DUers and friends.

All the donated $ to Bernie goes to Bernie except for the actual charge card fee by law: http://support.actblue.com/faq#q15

Fees all vendors pay to use your credit card from a vendors perspective: http://paysimple.com/credit_card_rates_explained.html

IF you give a tip it goes to Act Blue, the most successful Democratic $ raising PAC for their in house expenses like rent, payroll, IT, etc.

How much in campaign funds he has raised in total? Not just from DU, and the other groups I see listed on ActBlue, but total. I know it was 1.5 million in the first 24 hours, and somewhere I heard it got up to 2.5 million on the next day (not sure if this is true or not). I wonder where we can find out how much he has raised so far?
