Democratic presidential candidate and former Rhode Island Gov. Lincoln Chafee raised a lot less money than his party's frontrunner Hillary Clinton did in the third quarter — a whole lot less.
While Clinton amassed a whopping $33 million by the end of September, Chafee only raised $15,457 — not even enough money to buy Consumer Reports' worst-rated car of 2015, a Chrysler 200. According to Politico's report, Chafee's fundraising total puts him in dead last out of the entire presidential field, GOP included.
