The Republican National Committee on Monday announced its total fundraising haul and campaign efforts with just one day before the midterm elections.

In total, the RNC raised $308 million this election cycle. Of that figure, $31.1 million went to the National Republican Senatorial Committee and the National Republican Congressional Committee, the subordinate organizations that lend support to candidates for the upper and lower chambers of Congress, respectively.

Moreover, additional funds went to the state and territorial parties, per the RNC memo.

Outside of financials, the RNC trained over 1 million volunteers this cycle, who in turn made over 100 million voter contacts. Said volunteers cleared 1 million voter contacts in each of the 21 battleground states.

The memo gave particular credit to RNC Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel, citing her participation in 333 fundraising events and efforts to grow brick-and-mortar outreach in minority communities. It further highlighted her pursuit of election integrity lawsuits.

Under McDaniel's leadership, the RNC has had its "most litigious" election cycle, filing dozens of suits to protect the security of state and local elections and notching wins in many of those cases.

Just the News has sought comment from the RNC.
