Texas Congressman Ron Paul raised more than any other GOP candidate in the State of New Hampshire this quarter, with the exception of Mitt Romney, proving once again that he is a serious contender for the presidency in 2012.
Despite not conducting any major fundraising events, the Libertarian Congressman raised $33,095 from 74 donors in the first in the nation primary state.
The total far outstrips any other Republican contender, with the exception of Romney who, as it is well known, has extensive financial clout behind his campaign.
Of the other contenders, Former Minnesota Governor Tim Pawlenty emerged most successful, rasing $18,535 from 19 donors.
The rest of the pack – Former New Mexico Governor Gary Johnson, businessman Herman Cain, former Pennsylvania Senator Rick Santorum and Minnesota Congresswoman Michele Bachmann all raised less than $11,000. Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich pulled in just $1,300 from three donations.
As the Boston Globe points out, Paul even managed to raise more than president Obama, who took $25,085 from 85 donors.
The Globe analysed filings with the Federal Election Commission for the fundraising quarter ending June 30 and found that Romney received $98,775 from 82 separate donations by New Hampshire residents.
