DNC Raises $10.25 Million From Small-Dollar Donors in September

The late-month surge outpaced prior midterm cycles as the party said about 1 in 5 donors gave for the first time.

  • The Democratic National Committee raised $10.25 million from small-dollar donors in September, a late surge reported ahead of the November 3 midterm election as the cash-strapped party seeks to stabilize operations.
  • To mitigate supporter fatigue, the DNC deliberately reduced email solicitation volume throughout September. Despite lower outreach frequency, the party secured over $10 million from grassroots contributions, suggesting higher engagement per appeal.
  • Approximately 1 in 5 donors contributed for the first time, signaling successful base expansion. The September total represents increases of $3.5 million over 2018, $1.6 million over 2022, and $3.4 million over 2014.
  • Democratic National Committee Chair Ken Martin called the fundraising a "clear sign" that Democrats were on a winning path. Officials hope the surge stabilizes operations as the party carries debt into the campaign's final weeks.
  • Despite this grassroots momentum, the Democratic National Committee lags behind Republican fundraising efforts during President Donald Trump's second term. The party faces continued pressure to compete with GOP outside spending before Election Day.
