“I’m calling to say a double woo-hoo thank you,” Warren said in her phone call to the donor, identified only as Caitlyn, who said she teaches English as a second language.
“This is how we’re going to do it, Caitlyn,” Warren said. “It’s about how we’re going to win in 2020, how we’re going to start making real change come January 2021. And it’s going to be about a movement, and you’re a part of this.”
Exciting news: We just passed one million contributions made to our campaign!

Sanders’s campaign announced that he hit the 1 million donations mark in April, and that he crossed the 2 million threshold earlier this month, the Times reported. He has raised $36.2 million throughout the 2020 presidential campaign cycle, compared to Warren’s $25.2 million.
Warren’s campaign is rejecting donations from PACs and federal lobbyists, and she has sworn off high-dollar fundraisers. She raised just $6 million in the first quarter of 2019, significantly less than other top-tier candidates.
