The campaign finance reports for the 4th quarter aren't due until 1/31 however some of the campaigns havve started to release their hauls for the 4th quarter. So far
Clinton Raised $37 million
Carson- Raised $23 million
Cruz- Raised $20 million
Clinton has said her campaign has $38 million currently on hand, with $112 million raised in total and $74 million spent haven't seen anything on what Carson or Cruz have on hand.
Clinton released her #'s this afternoon, Carson and Cruz actually did on Wed, technically a day before the quarter ended, releasing what they expect to have raised for the quarter.
I haven't seen any other campaigns release any of the 4th quarter #'s yet, will do so as I see them, anyone else who sees them feel free. The reports are due with the FEC on Jan 31st so we will see a more detailed breakout by then
I would be interested in seeing a comparison of each campaign's cash on hand at 12/31/15. January 3 during the Sunday shows is when the primary campaign really begins in earnest. Everything up until now has effectively been the preseason.
So, what are the cash reserves of each candidate as the candidates shift out of first gear and start squealing the tires for the first time, as we head down the stretch for real to the first primary in Iowa on February 1?

The one thing is we might not know for sure until just one day before the Iowa Caucuses, as the actual reports are due with the FEC on 1/31. With that being said some campaigns might file with the FEC prior to then so we might see some reports earlier. Others might put out press releases prior to the full reports being filed with the FEC. Those press releases obviously will not have as much info as the full reports will and what they put out is likely to differ for each campaign. Of the three to release their 4th quarter fundraising, Clinton was the only one to release the total cash currently on hand. Carson and Cruz released estimeates on what they raised in the 4th quarter, but not what they spent or what they currently have on hand (though some of that info might be forthcoming)
The Super PAC's are typically required to file semi-annually as opposed to quarterly as the candidates themselves are so we haven't seen any true reports for them since July. Those reports are also due on Jan 31st.
I seriously doubt these are actual cash in the bank. They are probably pledges of some sort. In any case, it is sad to see the Salvation Army having to collect one dollar at a time to get to the needy but some idiots give $50 million to Jeb to blow on ads in a matter of months. As far as I am concerned, the more they raise the less I like them.
"The latest haul for Clinton, 68, brings her 2015 fundraising total to $112 million, and gives her one of the best-funded campaign treasuries in the race for the November 2016 U.S. presidential elections.
Clinton has prided herself on raising funds from women and donors of small amounts. In the most recent quarter, 94 percent of the money raised was in donations of $100 or less."

Not including the millions received in the form of "contributions" through her foundation from many of the most vile thugs, dictators and abusive regimes on the planet, much of which clearly appears to be payola for favors granted while she was Secretary of State.

I guess you missed this line: "In the most recent quarter, 94 percent of the money raised was in donations of $100 or less."
The point being, the meme often reiterated here on C-D is that Clinton has no support or that her support is collapsing, which this would seem to disprove.
4th Quarter reports were officially released today. Some of the campaigns released their hauls earlier in the month, but the official reports came out today. Below is the 4th quarter (Oct 1st to Dec 31st) fundraising, spending and total cash on hand for each campaign. This does not include Super PAC figures (that were also released) or totals the campaign announced in January (Sanders campaign announced a $20 million haul in Jan alone), so keep in mind these numbers are a month old

I know I'm not in one of the early voting states but I find this number astounding. Is Clinton even running ads? $74 million is a ton of money to spend on whatever the hell she has going on..
