Pete Buttigieg raised a staggering $7 million in April alone
Pete Buttigieg’s campaign jolted its top donors with big news on a conference call last month: The upstart mayor had raised $7 million in the month of April alone, as much as Buttigieg had in his entire eye-catching first quarter in the presidential race.
And the campaign has urged its donors to step on the gas on their own, outside of the candidate’s fundraisers, to help meet its lofty goals, encouraging contests among bundlers to bring in the most cash and reminding them that hefty fundraising was a key factor that legitimized Barack Obama in the early days of the 2008 presidential campaign.

"Last time, I'd say [his fundraising] put him in the bottom of the top tier — now I'd say he's firmly in it," said Connor Farrell, a veteran Democratic fundraiser, comparing the Buttigieg campaign's growth from the end of the first quarter to the end of the second fundraising quarter.
