Preliminary reports show that Congressman Ron Paul raised $8 million for his presidential campaign in the 3rd quarter (July, August, September) from 100,000 unique donors! ~ apppx $80 per donor.
Governor Rick Perry, on the other hand, raised $17 million, but from only 22,000 unique donors. ~ appx. $770 per donor!
Perry's active supporters clearly have deeper pockets. But Paul's supporters aren't defecting to other camps because of Paul's consistent message of liberty and peace.
And we can expect a huge number in the fourth quarter with a November 11 Veterans Day money bomb and a December 16 Boston Tea Party money bomb. On Dec. 16, 2007, Paul supporters organized what turned out to be a $6.2 million dollar day; that remains the record for most amount of money raised in one day by a presidential candidate.
