Sanders Pulls In Another $33 Million

Sen. Bernie Sanders raised $33 million in the fourth quarter of 2015, the AP reports.

Key takeaway: “Most of Sanders’ fundraising came through online donations from 2.5 million people during 2015, a number that his team said surpassed President Barack Obama’s record number of 2.2 million donations in 2011.”

Vox: “Sanders’s achievement is all the more impressive both because he doesn’t have access to the traditional Democratic fundraising networks (indeed, he’s been warring with the party establishment), and because of his constant criticism of the influence of corporations and the superrich.”
