The total, which reflects fundraising by the Bush campaign and Right to Rise, a super-PAC supporting the former Florida governor, makes Bush the unrivaled leader of the presidential field when it comes to revenues. The next-closest White House contender is Hillary Clinton, whose campaign and allied super-PACs have raised nearly $70 million.
