Via the NYT: Obama Tops His Rivals, Raising $32.5 Million in Quarter:
Senator Barack Obama raised at least $32.5 million from April through June, he announced today, on his campaign Web site, attracting more than 258,000 contributors since entering the Democratic presidential race nearly six months ago.
This, as opposed to:
Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton, Democrat of New York, raised about $21 million for the primary, a spokesman confirmed today, and about $27 million over all.[...]
John Edwards’s campaign said today that it had raised more than $9 million, while Gov. Bill Richardson of New Mexico reported raising $7 million and Senator Christopher J. Dodd of Connecticut reported raising $3.25 million.
What is especially impressive about Obama’s totals is the number of donors involved.
