House Democratic campaign arm outraises Republicans heading into last month before elections
CBSN
The main campaign arm for House Democrats raised $56.5 million from July through the end of September, according to numbers first shared with CBS News.
Their sum means the committee has raised more than their Republican counterparts in that same period, as the party that holds control of the House faces massive super PAC spending and historical headwinds going into November's midterm elections.
The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) raised $27.5 million in September, with $14 million of that coming from "grassroots funding" or donations of $200 or less. They raised $10.5 million more than their counterparts at the National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) for the month, who raised $16.9 million in September.
