Biden press secretary TJ Ducklo on the good news about the campaign's 4th quarter fundraising.

It's good to see Ducklo online, even while he's fighting cancer.

Thread starts here, full text below:






NEWS: @JoeBiden for President had its best fundraising quarter of the campaign to finish off 2019.

We raised $22.7 million and DOUBLED our online fundraising compared to last quarter

#Joementum



Other key points from Q4:

-- Average per day online revenue + 121% during impeachment

-- More than half of donors were first time contributors

-- Digital donations doubled vs last quarter

-- 98% from grassroots donors

-- Average online contribution $23



From @schultzohio: “These numbers clearly demonstrate Donald Trump’s lies & attacks on the VP have only cemented and expanded his support, serving as a constant reminder to Democratic primary voters that Trump is terrified by the idea of facing Joe Biden in a general election....



"...We’re also seeing significant support from Democrats who previously supported other candidates and are now rallying behind the candidate they believe can bring the country together and beat Donald Trump.”

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden

I like the way he broke it down - "More than half of donors were first time contributors" and "98% from grassroots donors".

"Donald Trump’s lies & attacks on the VP have only cemented and expanded his support, serving as a constant reminder to Democratic primary voters that Trump is terrified by the idea of facing Joe Biden in a general election."

Good poll numbers, even in the early states. A very favorable primary schedule in March where he will win by huge margins in most of the southern states. The only question in my mind is whether he receives a plurality or an outright majority of the delegates, but I do expect for him to be in the lead by a large margin by the end of March.
