The Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee announced today that it raised $43.6 million in 2009 — $2.4 million more than its GOP counterpart — and has $12.5 million in the bank — $4.3 million more than the NRSC.
DSCC Executive Director J.B. Poersch made this statement about the numbers:
“Even with the continued economic problems, Democrats around the country are united and pro-active heading into the election year. Republicans continue to choose obstructionism and delay over getting America back on track, and that is a losing strategy. Rest assured that the DSCC will be quick and aggressive in drawing distinctions between the two parties and will work tirelessly in the months ahead to raise the funds necessary to maintain and expand our Democratic majority in the Senate.”
