The Democratic National Committee is continuing to struggle to raise money, bringing in a meager $3.9 million in October.
The DNC’s showing last month adds to the national party’s ongoing problems with fundraising; the organization has only brought in $55 million this year, the Hillreported Tuesday. The DNC has $5 million in cash-on-hand, while it is $3.2 million in debt.
The past quarter was the DNC’s second-worst fundraising quarter of 2017.
These numbers contrast with those of the Republican National Committee, which raised $9.2 million in October, bringing its total cash-on-hand for the year to $42.5 million. The RNC has raised $113 million so far in 2017.
