White House contenders report first fundraising totals of campaign
WASHINGTON (CNN) -- A handful of Democratic and Republican presidential hopefuls disclosed their first official presidential fundraising numbers of the 2008 campaign in reports due to the Federal Election Commission Wednesday.
Only candidates who created a federal committee in 2006, either an exploratory committee or a full-fledged presidential campaign, were required to submit reports; candidates such as Sen. Hillary Clinton, D-New York, and former Gov. Mitt Romney, R-Massachusetts, who created their committees in 2007, will not be required to disclose their presidential fundraising until later this year. Several candidates submitted reports for their Senate or House campaign committees. Any money in these accounts can be transferred to a presidential committee. A compilation of the latest filings appears below. Some reports were not available as of Thursday afternoon. -- CNN's Robert Yoon and Xuan Thai DEMOCRATS: Sen.
