Elizabeth Warren Announces Massive Fundraising Haul After Fiery Debate

Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) was on fire during Wednesday night’s debate, attacking the other presidential candidates on the stage with a fervor that she rarely exhibits. And it seems that her tactic paid off — the Warren campaign announced that they pulled more than $2.8 million on the day of the debate.

In a tweet, the campaign said that Wednesday was “our best debate day of the entire campaign.”

Money started flooding in as Warren swung at the other candidates on the debate stage, particularly going after former New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg, who made his debut debate appearance last night.

Before the debate was even over, Warren’s Chief Marketing Officer Caitlin Mitchell said that the campaign “raised $425,000 in the last 30 minutes.”

Early in the debate, the Massachusetts senator hit Bloomberg hard over the way that he’s treated women, saying, “A billionaire who calls women ‘fat broads’ and ‘horse-faced lesbians,’ and no, I’m not talking about Donald Trump, I’m talking about Mayor Bloomberg,”

Later in the debate, she challenged Bloomberg to release women from non-disclosure agreements that his company made with them.

Warren said, “We are not going to beat Donald Trump with a man who has who knows how many nondisclosure agreements, and the drip, drip, drip of stories of women saying they have been harassed and discriminated against.”
