WILMINGTON, Del. (AP) — President Joe Biden’s reelection campaign and the Democratic National Committee report raising more than $90 million in March and ending the year’s first quarter with $192 million-plus in cash on hand. They’re further stretching their money advantage over Donald Trump and the Republicans. The Biden campaign and its affiliated entities reported collecting $187 million from January through March. Trump and the Republican National Committee have said they raised about $65.5 million in March and had $93.1 million on hand. Trump’s campaign said Saturday it raised $50.5 million for an event with major donors at the Florida home of billionaire investor John Paulson. That sets a single-event fundraising record.
