Will The Truth About Clinton's Fundraising Numbers Come Out?

Will TPMElectionCentral call upon the Clinton campaign if they are going to publicly release their March fundraising numbers? It was reported that they raised up to $20 million dollars, which was half of what Obama had raised in March to the tune of $40 million dollars.

The Clinton camp claimed that most of their March money was earmarked for the primary. The FEC report release by the Clinton camp should prove that to be true or false. Also, I would like to see more reporting about whether vendor bills are still being unpaid by the Clinton campaign. I've heard reports that the Clinton camp prefers to pay media buys first before paying vendors. If this trend continues, it signals financial trouble for the Clinton camp which will not be of good stead to them in the general election campaign.

The FEC report is due out today. It's usually due the 20th, but that's Sunday, and the FEC doesn't kick the deadline out to Monday.

Clinton's donors usually have to be able to count up to $2,300.

I cheerfully hope that instead, they've tried to count up to 2,024, and decided she can't get there.

Collectively, donors could stop her faster than anyone else.
