The scandal engulfing Republican Senate candidate Roy Moore's campaign has fattened the campaign coffers of his Democratic opponent Doug Jones to the tune of $250,000 a day, NBC News reported Friday.

The Jones campaign would not confirm or deny the report to AL.com, but Jones campaign chairman Giles Perkins said in a statement that an uptick in fundraising began when Moore won the Republican runoff last month against incumbent Sen. Luther Strange.

"We have seen a pickup in fundraising since Roy Moore was nominated and Alabama's choice became clear," Perkins said.

The extent of Jones's fundraising boom will become clear later this month when both campaigns face a Nov. 30 deadline to submit campaign finance reports to the Federal Election Commission.

Starting on Nov. 23, the campaigns have to disclose contributions of $1,000 or more to the FEC within 48 hours of receiving such donations.

The campaigns last submitted reports on Oct. 15, which showed Moore with a nearly $1 million advantage over Jones. Moore raked in $2.5 million during that fundraising period to Jones's $1.6 million.
