She's raised $26 million for his presidential bid, but has another $10 million dedicated from her run for the U.S. Senate. So, the total is $36 million, but in reality she only raised $26 million for her presidential bid.

Her press release says that she raised $26 million since her annoucement and $10 million was transferred in. Where I'm sitting, she raised $26 million, the other $10 million is padding the numbers.

But HRC didn't raise 36 million in the first three months. She raised 26. Even if you gave her the 36 number, 10 of that came from the Senate campaign which, of course, means that money was NOT raised in the last three months.

AP needs to correct the correction.
