The RNC has nearly a 7-to-1 money advantage over the DNC, which has more debt than cash on hand [View all]

An already massive gap between Republican National Committee and Democratic National Committee finances widened in February, according to new reports filed with the Federal Election Commission.

The RNC out-raised the DNC in February, $18.5 million to $10.3 million. And entering March, the RNC reported nearly seven times as much cash on hand, $109 million to $15.9 million.

The DNC has more outstanding debt, $17.4 million, than cash on hand, keyed to a $15 million loan the committee took out last October.

A DNC official noted that the committee was committed to deep investments in core infrastructure, especially staff, to build party capacity.
