Democratic Primaries

Congratulations to our presumptive Democratic nominee, Joe Biden!
My question is one of fact, not of candidates' worthiness.
Today on MSNBC Jonathan Capeheart asked why we aren't giving Stacey Abrams as much attention as we are Beto.
He went on to say that Abrams had raised more money than Beto had in their losing races.
I'm just wondering if that's true.
No one on the panel corrected him, so I assume they all agreed with his assertion.
Anyone know?
Thks.

That is the way I remembered it.
Wonder why nobody corrected Capeheart when he said it?

(149,615 posts)2. I don't know why we're not paying as much attention to her.
Maybe it's because she might not be running?
I hadn't heard that she is.
