Trump's Campaign Raises Over $160 Million in September, Up from August, but Behind 2020 Pace

Oct 2, 2024, 08:45 PM

Former President Donald Trump's presidential campaign, referred to as the Trump-Vance campaign, announced that it raised over $160 million in September, increasing its cash on hand to $283 million. The campaign noted that 96% of the donations came from small donors contributing less than $200, with an average donation size of $60. This fundraising haul is up from the approximately $130 million raised in August, though it is not a significant increase compared to previous election cycles, as fundraising amounts usually rise dramatically in the final months. The campaign's total is behind the pace of its 2020 fundraising, when in October 2020, Trump’s campaign and the Republican National Committee announced raising $247.8 million in September of that year.
