The Republican National Committee announced Saturday that it raised $9.2 million for the month of January.
The political committee dedicated to helping elect Republicans to office said that it collected $114.8 million this election cycle, and has $18.2 million cash on hand.
RNC Chairman Reince Priebus credited January’s haul, a notable increase over the $6.1 million made between Nov. 25 to Dec. 31, to small donors.
“Thanks to our strong grassroots support, the RNC is running a permanent national ground game that will be key to our nominee’s victory in November,” said Priebus in a statement. “The RNC is organized and engaged earlier and on a larger scale than ever before and the enthusiasm behind our effort is only growing.”
“We continue to be the only organization running a national field organization focused on winning the general election, and we’re doing it thanks to our growing number of supporters across the country,” Priebus said.
