The Obama campaign announced today that the Obama / Biden campaign raised $66,000,000 in August, shattering the record Obama set back in February of $55,000,000 by 20%. More impressive was the 500,000 new voters that are new contributors to the campaign making it the most widely supported presidential run in history.
Campaign manager David Plouffe said:
John McCain says that he’ll take on the special interests and lobbyists, but McCain can’t fix a problem he’s been part of for three decades. The 500,000 new donors to the Obama campaign demonstrate just how strongly the American people are looking to kick the special interests out and change Washington. We are proud of the millions of volunteers and more than 2.5 million donors to the Obama campaign who are contributing to help us deliver the change we need instead of letting John McCain just continue the same failed Bush policies while middle class Americans struggle.
