ActBlue, the online fundraising platform for Democrats, recorded its highest number of donations Sunday as contributors poured $12 million into campaigns and progressive organizations on the last day of the second quarter.
The 390,000 donations topped the platform’s previous one-day record of 306,000, while the $12 million contributed on June 30 was the second-highest dollar total since ActBlue’s founding in 2004, the group said.
