Bernie Sanders Campaign Reveals It Raised Record Amount On Debate Day

Sen. Bernie Sanders gestures after the Democratic presidential primary debate at Loyola Marymount University.

Senator Bernie Sanders‘ presidential campaign says it raised a record amount of money on Thursday, the day of the final primary debate of 2019, reports The Hill.

In a statement, the campaign revealed that Sanders raised over $ 1 million, which marks the senator’s best debate-day haul so far.

Taking a jab at candidates relying on billionaires and super PACs, campaign manager Faiz Shakir suggested that Sanders’ record-breaking haul is proof that grassroots power can defeat President Donald Trump.

“A lot of candidates on the debate stage last night worked hard to convince voters that our leaders must rely on super PACs funded by the wealthy and gather big checks in wine caves to beat Donald Trump in 2020,” Shakir said, adding that Sanders is “proving them wrong every single day.”

Shakir also argued that Sanders’ rejection of big money donations demonstrates to working class voters that he will fight for them and transform the United States if elected president.
