Hillary Clinton's fundraising spree isn't letting up — her campaign is now pushing its top raisers to bring in more than $100 million over the final 62 days of the election.

Just days after announcing a record haul of over $140 million between the campaign and two related committees in August alone, the Brooklyn-based team told members of its finance council on a conference call that it needs $100 million more from them — aside from the small-dollar, online donations — to defeat Donald Trump, according to individuals on the call.


The new goal was unveiled — and repeated multiple times — on a roughly 55-minute private conference call on Tuesday morning with campaign manager Robby Mook, campaign vice chair Huma Abedin, and finance chief Dennis Cheng.

Speaking from New York as Clinton flew to Tampa for a campaign appearance, Mook posited that cutting through nonstop news coverage of Trump would be Clinton’s biggest challenge in the homestretch.

The trio also ran through some of the campaign’s recent benchmarks, touting both the emergence of Bernie Sanders on the campaign trail for Clinton and the publication of Clinton and Sen. Tim Kaine’s new policy book, as well as promoting the campaign’s new plane.

The Democratic nominee spent almost her entire August raising money, joined in that goal by running mate Kaine, former President Bill Clinton, and other campaign surrogates who crossed the country to help fund the final push.

While Clinton has been on a brief pause from campaign fundraising to kick off September, she is due to start up again shortly, including another trip to campaign piggy bank California next week, according to invitations obtained by POLITICO. Unlike her quiet August, however, Clinton and her band of surrogates are planning to have a nearly ubiquitous public presence in the swing states this month, too.
