*includes $2,403,521.36 million transferred from Gephardt's congressional campaign committee.

Notes:
3rd Q 2003: Gephardt's fundraising, while not stellar, has been consistent. The $3.8 million the campaign raised placed Gephardt third for the quarter and roughly matched its 2nd Quarter total. However the campaign spent $4.2 million, reducing cash on hand to $5.9 million.

2nd Q 2003: Gephardt's disappointing take of $3.8 million, well below the campaign's target of $5 million, was one of the major themes to emerge from the second quarter reports. Responding to a reporter's question after the Human Rights Campaign's presidential forum on July 15, Gephardt stated, "First of all, we're on course. We are raising the amount that we set out to raise. Our budget has always been $20 million this year and we're roughly very close to half way to that goal. We've raised 9.8 or 9.9 million so that's pretty good for political work. And I'm convinced that we're going to raise what we need in the next six months. Look, you never raise what you want to raise. We fell a little short of our expectations in what we wanted to raise, but we've fixed some of the concerns that we've had with the operation and we're going to do better." The headline on USA Today 's July 16 article by Jill Lawrence read "'Wake-up call': Gephardt fundraising comes in light" and the bank headline of the Washington Post's article said "Weak Performance of Gephardt Is a Surprise." The $3.8 million included $132,966.24 from 58 PACs and campaign committees.

1st Q 2003: The $5,951,721.26 includes $2,403,521.36 million transferred from Gephardt's congressional campaign committee. Thus Gephardt raised $3.6 million in the quarter, which was seen as somewhat disappointing when compared to Edwards' $7.4 million and Kerry's $7 million. $172,405.38 of the money raised came from 60 political committees; in addition to contributions from many labor PACS, the campaign also took in contributions from five Las Vegas casino PACs.
