Update: Ron Paul Campaign raises $4.5 $6 million in "1" day
Update to yesterday's report: In the last 4 1/2 hours of their fund raising, the Ron Paul campaign raised an additional $1.5 million. Result: in a 24-hour period on December 16, the campaign raised $6.026 million dollars, surpassing the one-day record of $5.7 million held by John Kerry. During the day, over 58,000 people contributed to Dr. Paul’s campaign, including 24,940 first-time donors. Over 118,000 Americans have donated to the campaign in the fourth quarter. The $6 million one-day total means the campaign has raised over $18 million this quarter, far exceeding its goal of $12 million.
For many Republicans, Ron Paul may not be their "cup of tea." But for many others as well as many libertarians, Constitution party activists and independents, he has their attention. And they are putting their money and numbers to work. Other candidates must be envious of the Ron Paul's influence and ability to raise campaign funds without even worrying about it or pleading for money Today, on a Sunday, the Ron Paul Presidential Campaign again broke another record in fund raising.
With two weeks remaining in the fourth quarter, the Ron Paul 2008 presidential campaign has blown past its $12 million fourth quarter fundraising goal. As of 7:30 pm, the campaign had raised over $4.5 million today and over $16 million for the fourth quarter. The campaign had received over 41,000 donations – including over 17,000 first time donors – today, for over $4.5 million. That total beats the previous Republican one-day record set on November 5, when supporters donated $4.2 million in a 24 hour period.
With its historic fundraising day, the campaign has now received over 110,000 donations in the fourth quarter, with two weeks remaining. Live totals are available online. The one-day donation event was organized by independent supporters for the anniversary of the Boston Tea Party. The Boston Tea Party signaled a revolution - is there another one in the making? We will see when the votes are in in the upcoming primaries.
