Keeping track of the money in the 2016
presidential race will be harder than ever - with all of the candidates,
all of the Super PACs, all of the other outside groups.
But here's a handy guide on everything you'll need to know.
Just more than two weeks from now, we'll reach
our next milestone in the 2016 presidential contest: The first results
from the money race.
The 2nd fundraising quarter (April 1 thru June 30) ends on Tuesday, and the campaigns are required to report their results with the Federal Election Commission by July 15, while the deadline for the Super PACs is July 31.
So those are the dates when we'll find out which campaigns have raked
in the most money, as well as which big donors have written hefty checks
to Super PACs.
Note: Only one major candidate - Sen. Ted Cruz,
R-Texas - began his presidential campaign before April 1. So while the
other campaigns will be reporting their first fundraising hauls of the
2016 race by July 15, this will be Cruz's second report. And since
Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker and Ohio Gov. John Kasich won't be
announcing their presidential bids until after June 30, they won't have
to file their first campaign reports until Oct. 15.
