Congratulations to our presumptive Democratic nominee, Joe Biden!
Joe Biden sees fundraising improvement after rough summer
Link to tweet
Joe Biden took in more than $15 million for his White House run over the past two months, a sum that shows the former vice presidents fundraising operation has rebounded slightly after a lackluster summer in which he trailed his leading rivals.
Bidens campaign would not say exactly how much he has raised since the end of September. But with roughly one month left before the current period ends, campaign manager Greg Schultz said in a memo provided to The Associated Press that Biden has already surpassed the $15.6 million he raised across July, August and September.
The improvement comes at a costly juncture in the Democratic primary, as candidates sprint to get their message out and mobilize supporters ahead of the first-in-the-nation Iowa caucuses in February.
Schultz said online fundraising helped fuel the increase, which he attributed to discredited attacks that President Donald Trump has made against Biden and his son over their past dealings in Ukraine.

realize that Biden is the best candidate to win enough states to beat trump? If he picks a strong progressive Dem woman they will be a great team. Without a win our goals will never be realized.
