The big money is now going to the State committees, and there's plenty that's rolling into those coffers.
Just like the Republican party did years ago, the Democrats have abandoned their National Committee as the major distributor for campaign funds.
The Democrats want to put their donations where it counts the most for them. The drive now is to get every election from the bottom up filled with candidates. That's the only way the party will rebuild its base, and it's exactly how the GOP did it 30 years ago.
The internet has changed the way donations are made drastically. In states where the Democratic party is strong, folks are contributing to states where the party is weak. Folks are picking and choosing for themselves who they want their money to go.
The Democrats have proven they can get a President elected, but now, they have to prove they can get Representatives and Senators elected.
That's their sole focus for the next 2 elections, or even more, to come. At every lower level of government first.
The presidency will always take care of itself when it comes to funding. Always has, always will.
The Democratic donors fell victim just like the rest of Hillary Clinton's supporters to the worthless polls. Maybe the donors learned more than those voters still here quoting meaningless polls!
CNN continues to try to beat their mother company's (Time-Warner) donation of over $800,000 out of Trump in the news. Well, I guess the bitter voters also do the same thing. Bunch of sorry losers, hopefully, they all learned something this time around, but I wouldn't bet on that anymore than I would have bet on Hillary winning POTUS!
So, I suspect, thinking this through that the polling agencies were "bought" in order to make it look like the morally, mentally and physically incompetent Hillary actually had a chance thereby bringing in those donations from those gullible enough to fall for it.
They are going to have to really come up with some candidates that will get those donors dipping back in their pockets. It should be interesting.

They don't have to be bought.
If you look into most pols they pol MORE dems and ind then repubs, in some case by a LAGE margin, then "report" the "results" as if they are NOT biased.
Why fundraise when you keep losing elections over (2010) and over (2012) and over (2014) and over (2016)... and will continue to lose over (2018) and over (2020)...
