Democratic party committees hold $100 million fundraising edge over Republican party committees


The three committees associated with the Democratic Party have raised a cumulative $462 million and spent $360 million for the 2024 election cycle, while the three committees associated with the Republican Party have raised $375 million and spent $300 million. That data is through March 31, 2024, the end of the most recent party committee campaign finance filing period.

The three Democratic committees are the Democratic National Committee (DNC), the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee (DSCC), and the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC). The three Republican committees are the Republican National Committee (RNC), National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC), and National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC).

The DNC and DCCC each maintain a lead over their Republican counterparts in cumulative receipts, disbursements, and cash on hand as of March 31, 2024. The NRSC leads the DSCC in receipts and disbursements, while the DSCC leads in cash on hand. See the table below for exact figures.

Compared to previous cycles, the Democratic committees’ cumulative receipts as of March ($462 million) outpace their receipts at this point in the 2020 election cycle ($406 million). Still, they are lower than their receipts at this point in the 2022 election cycle ($515 million). On the Republican side, the three committees have raised $375 million as of last month, which is lower than their March 2020 fundraising total ($541 million) and their March 2022 fundraising total ($534 million).
