LAS VEGAS –
The Romney for President Exploratory Committee today announced that it
raised $10.25 million in connection with today’s call day fundraiser in
Nevada.
Approximately
800 participants from across the nation gathered inside the Las Vegas
Convention Center in a space the size of two football fields. The event
began at 9am ET and concluded at 5pm ET.
“We
are overwhelmed by the outpouring of support for Governor Romney’s
campaign,” said Finance Chair Spencer Zwick. “The results are a strong
indication of the national enthusiasm for Governor Romney and his
pro-jobs platform. As today’s event makes clear, Governor Romney will
have the resources to be competitive and to spread his jobs and economy
message. We would like to thank all of the friends, volunteers and
supporters who helped make this event a success.”
