Below are the 3Q fundraising totals that each presidential candidate raised in NJ. Clinton blew everyone else away, beating NJ GOP darling Rudy Giuliani by a quarter million dollars. She raised three times more than her nearest Democratic rival Barack Obama. Surprisingly, Edwards comes in fourth with about $100,000, behind Bill Richardson with $125,000.

The fundraising totals for the Democrats closely follow the polls in state. The latest Quinnipiac poll showed Clinton leading with 45% of the vote - three times that of Obama's 15% and Edwards with just 7% (other polls have similar margins).

Hillary Clinton $1,137,472

Rudy Giuliani $886,556

Barack Obama $368,590

John McCain $128,594

Bill Richardson $124,625

Mitt Romney $114,250

John Edwards $104,715

Fred Thompson $77,320

Ron Paul $70,867

Joe Biden $66,615

Chris Dodd $52,284

Mike Hucakbee $7,450

Dennis Kucinich $5,449

Tom Tancredo $4,635

Tommy Thompson $4,600

Sam Brownback $4,158

Duncan Hunter $1,130

am I right that (0.00 / 0)

this would only include people who gave more than $250, since smaller donations are not listed individually.

odd (0.00 / 0)

I wonder how they do that, since small (I should have said $200, not $250) donations are not disclosed. Without the zip code, how would they attach a location? I see much smaller numbers for all candidates at the NY Times website, which is for $200+ individuals only.

It's the reporting obligation. (4.00 / 1)

Contributions of $200 or more must be itemized and the campaign must make best efforts to collect and report the name, address, employer, and occupation of each donor. But when total dollars are reported, the figure should include both these "reportable" donations and all the smaller donations that were received but not itemized.

Are you sure these data are accurate?? (0.00 / 0)

Dodd raises a mere $700 from NJ contributions? A few thousand less than the wingnuts Tancredo and Brownback?? And no money AT ALL for Kucinich, who usually gets 7-10 votes in the Blue Jersey straw polls. You're telling me not even one person gave Kucinich even a measly $25 this past quarter??

Apparently (0.00 / 0)

they are not willing to vote with their wallets.
