Nikki Haley Raises More Than $11 Million in Six Weeks
CHARLESTON, S.C. — Presidential candidate Nikki Haley raised more than $11 million in just six weeks since she announced her candidacy on February 15, 2023.
Funding comes from 70,000 donations, including more than 67,000 donations from people who gave $200 or less. Haley received support from all 50 states. Her top three fundraising states were South Carolina, Florida, and Texas. Haley ends the first quarter with $7.8 million cash on hand.
Haley’s $11 million is more than the $9.5 million Donald Trump raised in his first quarter as an announced candidate (Q4 2022) and more than was raised by nearly all 2016 Republican presidential candidates in their first quarters.
During the same six-week period, Haley criss-crossed the country, holding town halls, rallies, meet-and-greets, and other grassroots events. Haley has already hosted 19 grassroots events in Iowa and New Hampshire alone.
“In just six weeks, Nikki Haley’s massive fundraising and active retail campaigning in early voting states makes her a force to be reckoned with,” Haley campaign manager Betsy Ankney said. “Voters and donors are clearly responding to Nikki’s conservative message and her call for a new generation of leadership to make America strong and proud. As Nikki said in her announcement speech in Charleston on February 15, ‘I’ve been underestimated before. That’s always fun.’”
