Hillary Clinton and allies report $94 million in the bank at start of June
Hillary Clinton and her allies had more than $90 million on hand heading into June, both groups reported Monday.
Clinton's campaign announced Monday that it brought in $28.3 million for both the campaign and its joint fundraising account with the Democratic Party. As of June 1, the campaign had approximately $42.5 million on hand.
The average donation to Hillary for America during May was $44, according to the campaign, coming from roughly 430,000 people.
And Priorities USA, the main pro-Clinton super PAC, raised $12.1 million in May, bringing its total for the cycle to $87.9 million. The group also has an additional $45 million in commitments from donors for the rest of the year. Priorities USA had $52 million on hand at the start of June, the group announced.
Clinton's team has worked hard to raise money ahead of the general election, which is expected to be a brawl with presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump. Trump, meanwhile, eschewed traditional fundraising measures for the majority of the Republican primary season, only in recent weeks has he begin hitting the fundraising trail in earnest.
Priorities USA has already been hammering Trump across the airwaves for weeks; on Sunday, they released an ad called "Presidential," which uses Trump's own quotes on national security issues to say he is "too dangerous" to be commander-in-chief.
