House Dems double fundraising over GOP (AP)

WASHINGTON ? House Democrats may be in the minority, but new fundraising reports show their campaign committee raised nearly twice as much as their Republican counterparts.

The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee reported roughly $6.6 million in September contributions Thursday, compared with House Republicans' $3.8 million.

The group had a fundraising edge over the National Republican Congressional Committee since January but trailed the GOP in the amount of available cash on hand.

The reports come a week after President Barack Obama's campaign announced it and the Democratic party raised a combined $70 million for Obama's re-election bid.
