The Republican National Committee (RNC) raised an off-year record $8.8 million in October, it will announced in its yet-to-be filed report.
The RNC’s performance comes a month after it learned it was outraised by the Democratic National Committee (DNC) for the first quarter since 2004.
The GOP committee now has $11.2 million cash on hand. The DNC has yet to released its figures.
“The elections in Virginia and New Jersey clearly showed the American people oppose bigger government, reckless federal spending, and higher taxes, and this enthusiasm for common-sense Republican principles is strongly resonating with our generous and motivated donors,” RNC Chairman Michael Steele said in a statement. “Thanks to our many contributors, the RNC is on solid financial footing as we continue build an organization to support our candidates and state parties in the election of 2010 and beyond.”
