Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.) has raised more than $3.4 million in the third quarter of the year, doubling her haul from the previous quarter, Politico has learned.

Exact fundraising numbers will not be available for a few days. But as the filing deadline approached Thursday night, Bachmann spokesman Sergio Gor told Politico that the campaign’s cash on hand has increased by $1 million over the quarter.

“We are proud to announce that we have doubled our political contributions from the last cycle,” Gor said. “We appreciate the vast support we have gotten and are not taking this race for granted. Over 100,000 contributions have been made in the 3rd quarter cycle. We thank all of our supporters for their faith in Michele Bachmann.”

Bachmann has now raised roughly $7.5 million for her reelection campaign, a remarkable sum for a House race. Her cash on hand now stands at more than $3.4 million.
