The candidates’ Massachusetts fundraising numbers are somewhat in line with nationwide totals that show Clinton with $126.4 million in individual contributions compared to Sanders’ $95.4 million.

While Clinton’s campaign has raised big bucks from individuals, she’s also been helped by massive money pouring in through Priorities USA Action, a pro-Clinton Super PAC that has raised more than $50 million in support of the former Secretary of State, according to OpenSecrets. Sanders has raised just $44,968 from outside groups.
