Bernie Sanders' campaign says it raised $20 million in January
Bernie Sanders raised $20 million toward his presidential bid in January, Politico reports his campaign said Sunday. The money came from more than 770,000 donors, meaning the average contribution was quite small — just $27.
More than 3.25 million people have contributed to the Vermont senator's campaign so far, and almost none of them have reached the legal contribution limit.
