Despite Ron Paul’s record-breaking fundraising days, his campaign estimates he’ll need to raise about $23 million more in order to have a chance at being named the Republican nominee.
“Victory can be ours,” campaign chairman Kent Snyder said. “But we must triple our efforts and triple the amount of money raised right away.”
The money would be used to run ads in 20 states simultaneously, running up to Super Tuesday on Feb. 5. They also want to call and send mailings to all of the voters in that day’s primary states.
Paul’s campaign has raised more than $19 million this quarter. Almost one-third of that money was raised in a 24-hour period on Dec. 16.
The online fundraising record is just one of the many ways Paul and his supporters have been making history for 11 months. But there are still three more landmark steps, according to Snyder.
“First, Ron Paul becomes the Republican nominee,” he said. “Second, Dr. Paul becomes President Paul. Third, our country becomes America again.”
With all of the fundraising support Paul has seen, do you think it’s possible he can raise enough funds to make it through the primaries?
