Geez, and I thought Ron Paul's $6 million money bomb was impressive. Sadly, America is getting behind the socialist candidate but didn't rally (at least enough) around Ron Paul.

There is another factor that tilts in Sanders’s favor: Money. The New York primary is very expensive and Sanders has outraised Clinton considerably in 2016. While her campaign has relied on large donors who could give the maximum amount early on, Sanders get his donations from contributors who give an average of $30 but can do so many times.
In February, he raised a staggering $43.5 million – almost 50% more than Clinton, who cleared $30 million. If Sanders can continue to raise money at that rate, he will be able to spend a lot on ads in states with expensive media markets, such as New York, Pennsylvania and California.
It is likely that Sanders has already achieved something that would have seemed inconceivable at the start of the race: At the end of this month, his campaign will probably have raised more money from individual contributions than Clinton’s campaign, which was believed to be a fundraising juggernaut heading into the race.
