Breaking: Obama raises $32 million in January
Posted: 11:55 AM ET

Obama has raised over $30 million in January.
LOS ANGELES, California (CNN) — Democrat Barack Obama raised $32 million in the month of January alone for his presidential bid, CNN’s Candy Crowley confirms.

That total roughly equals his previous best three-month fundraising haul.

The campaign would not divulge how much money it has on hand — a more accurate measure of a campaign’s financial health going forward.

A campaign source also tells CNN the Illinois senator received contributions from 170,000 new donors in January.

The Clinton campaign would not indicate how much money it had raised in the same time period.

I think his fundraising abilities have helped him a great deal in this race.
