RNC Reports Strong Fundraising Supporting Senator McCain, Republicans
Americans Demonstrate Outpouring Of Support For John McCain's Candidacy
WASHINGTON – Republican National Committee (RNC) Chairman Robert M. “Mike” Duncan today announced that the RNC will report over $31 million cash-on-hand through the end of March 2008 in its upcoming filing with the Federal Election Commission.
“The RNC is very fortunate to enjoy the support of hundreds of thousands of donors, in addition to the fact that the President has invested time and energy to ensure Republican candidates have the necessary resources to communicate our message and mobilize the vote this fall,” said Duncan.
While the RNC will report $31 million cash-on-hand with no debt, the DNC reported that it had over $4 million cash-on-hand with $250,000 in debt at the end of February. In total, the RNC has raised over $36 million during the first three months of 2008.
“It’s clear that John McCain is the only candidate in this race with the experience, character, and vision to move our nation forward,” Duncan continued. “As we prepare for November, we are encouraged by the dedication and outpouring of support from so many who want to ensure that Senator McCain and Republican candidates are elected this fall.”
