The RNC dragged in $14.2 million in April, according to fundraising figures shared first with Fox News on Saturday. That tops the $12.9 million brought in by the DNC and the Democratic Grassroots Victory Fund, the DNC's joint fundraising arm.
The RNC's latest addition brings to $219.9 million the national party committee raised so far during the 2022 election cycle. That exceeds the DNC, which has gathered over $213 million so far this cycle.
