The Hill reports.
The RNC garnered $7.2 million in March, compared with $6.7 million for the DNC, according to filings at the Federal Election Commission. To be sure, the Democrats prevailed for the first quarter as a whole, with the DNC taking in $21 million, compared with $18.1 million for the RNC.
The RNC was in a bit of turmoil until Reince Priebus took over as chairman, replacing Michael Steele in mid-January.
In terms of debt, the DNC had more than $17 million at the end of March, compared to $19.8 million for the RNC. But the RNC’s total dropped $1.3 million during the month.
