(Reuters) - Democratic presidential candidate Elizabeth Warren pulled in more than $29 million in February, according to a campaign memo released on Sunday, more in a single month than the campaign had raised in any previous quarter.

The announcement followed South Carolina’s nominating contest on Saturday, when former Vice President Joe Biden cruised to a dominating victory over Senator Bernie Sanders. Warren, a senator from Massachusetts, finished in fifth place and likely needs a boost on March 3, when 14 states cast ballots across the country.
