Democrats Nearly Erase Long-Standing GOP Money Advantage

Democrats Nearly Erase Long-Standing GOP Money Advantage

National Democrats have nearly eliminated the fundraising advantage that their Republican rivals have had since campaign finance laws were changed five years ago.

The Republican National Committee and its House and Senate committees barely edged out their Democratic counterparts in first-quarter fundraising. Each side raised just over $47 million but the GOP came out on top by a difference of just $76,049.66, according to figures from both parties.
