Former Vice President Joe Biden collected $15.2 million in political donations this quarter, a number far below the sums collected by other candidates he is leading in the polls.
Former Vice President Joe Biden collected $15.2 million in political donations over the last quarter, his campaign reported Thursday, a sum that places him behind Democratic rivals whom he has been leading in the polls.
Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren, who has started to challenge Biden’s front-runner status after a long and consistent climb in the polls, has not yet reported her contributions. The federal filing deadline is Oct. 15 for candidates to report contributions made between July and September, but campaigns usually release the figures earlier.
“We haven’t raised what a lot of people have,” Biden told donors at a Greek restaurant. “We got started way later than everybody else.” Tickets for the event went for $1,500 or $2,800, and Biden thanked attendees for writing him checks.
