Former Vice President Mike Pence's campaign and super PAC raised just $3.85 million combined in the second quarter of this year, an adviser said on Friday.

Pence entered the 2024 GOP primary in early June with just three weeks until the end of the fundraising quarter. His campaign raised just over $1.1 million in that time, while his Committed to America super PAC raised about $2.6 million. His first official haul, while not terrible for three weeks, comes in far below the debut fundraising numbers from his most serious 2024 competitors.

"I’ve been very humbled to see our support around the country growing since we announced here in Iowa just about a month ago,” Pence said in a statement on the second quarter numbers, which also encouraged potential donors to give a dollar to his campaign. “We’re reaching out to people all across the country who share our vision, our conservative values.”

Despite Pence's positivity, the numbers raise questions about the former vice president's overall path to the nomination and his ability to reach the donor threshold to qualify for the first GOP debate.

The Pence campaign did not say how many donors contributed to the second quarter haul, but the Republican National Committee criteria for candidates to qualify for the August debate requires them to have 40,000 unique donors with at least 200 donors per state or territory in more than 20 states or territories.

"We’ll make the debate stage," Pence replied when asked by reporters in Iowa on Friday if he'd qualify for the debate.

Former President Donald Trump, who continues to dominate the GOP primary field, raised $35 million in the second quarter. Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL), who has held steady in second place despite faltering in the polls in recent months, raised $20 million in the six weeks after his campaign launch.

Federal Election Commission filings for the second quarter are not due for presidential campaigns until this Saturday.
