Democrats Raised $181 Million In September

The Obama campaign announced today that they had raised an astonishing $181 million from 1,825,813 donors in September 2012, the most they had raised in any month this year, in fact the most they had ever raised in any month since their $150 million haul in September 2008.

The average donation was $53 and 98% of the donations were less than $250. The campaign said that more than 10 million donations have been made in 2012.

The Democrats outraised the Republicans by $114 million to $111 million in August, but the Republicans have not announced their September fundraising total.
