Obama's April haul was $31.9 million

Jake Tapper broke the news that Obama raised a total of $31.9 million in April. Of that total, $31.3 million is for the primaries while $600,000 is available only for the general election. The numbers behind the total are fascinating:

Obama has an mighty $37.3 million on hand with $9.2 million tucked away for the general election.

Camp Obama proves (again) that big money comes in small packages. It's been a pattern since last year but the numbers are still impressive: 1.475 million total donors overall making 2.93 million contributions. The average contribution is $91.

The clicks come in small waves: 94% of the contributions to Obama's effort were under $200, 93% of contributions were $100 or less, 77% were $50 or less, and 52% were $25 or less.

Wow. April wasn't the best of months for the Obama campaign. Not bad at all.
