(J. Scott Applewhite/Associated Press)The Democratic Party organization charged with reclaiming the House majority said Monday that it raised more than $100 million in 2017, a record total for a non-election year. With $9.5 million in December receipts, the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee brought its total for the year to $105.4 million. The robust fundraising numbers come amid growing confidence from top Democrats that the party could win the House majority in November. The leading Democratic House super PAC, House Majority PAC, reported raising $14.7 million in 2017, with $11.4 million left on hand for the year ahead. Correction: A earlier version of this article mistakenly reported that House Majority PAC had not yet released its year-end fundraising totals.
