Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley raised more than $7 million during the second quarter, her campaign said Monday.
Since the start of her 2024 campaign in February, Haley raised $15.6 million and $7.3 million in the second quarter, while her affiliated super PAC, Stand For America Fund Inc., raised $18.7 million during the second quarter, bringing the total amount of money raised this year to $34.3 million.

Haley, a former South Carolina governor and United Nations ambassador, has $9.3 million in cash on hand, and Stand for America Fund has $17 million in cash on hand, bringing its total to $26.3 million.
Additionally, the Haley campaign said it has close to 160,000 donations from all 50 states, far outpacing the Republican National Committee's donor requirements for the first GOP debate. South Carolina, Florida, and Texas were the top three states leading donations.
“Nikki is grateful for the groundswell of support from nearly 160,000 donations from all 50 states. Voters want their next president to take on China, speak out against socialism at home and abroad, and provide a vision for a strong and proud America,” Haley campaign communications director Nachama Soloveichik said.
The RNC's first primary debate will be held in Milwaukee on August 23 and one of its requirements includes a minimum of 40,000 unique donors with 200 donors from at least 20 states — requirements Haley has met.

Yet Haley's top two 2024 rivals, former President Donald Trump and Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL), have also raised millions of dollars in the second quarter. Trump's campaign announced it had raised more than $35 million during the second quarter in spite of his mounting legal problems.
DeSantis's team said they had brought in $20 million in the six weeks of his presidential campaign, far below Trump's fundraising efforts.
