Hillary Clinton's campaign brought in $29.45 million in the third quarter, spending $25.8 million in the process - both totals that eclipse any other candidate in the race for the second straight quarter.

The campaign raised roughly $28.8 million in primary money and accepted around $691,000 in general election funds, ending the quarter with roughly $33 million cash on hand - another mark higher than any of her rivals.

But its nearly $26 million in spending was by far the biggest number of any White House aspirant: Clinton's camp spent roughly as much as Bernie Sanders raised over the three-month stretch.

Clinton's total spending includes an expense of roughly $8.5 million for salaries and payroll tax, as well as $3.4 million for television advertising, $2.6 million in online advertising, $2.5 million in direct marketing, and $1.2 million in polling.

Still working toward a $100 million fundraising goal for 2015, the campaign focused on spending early beyond Iowa and New Hampshire, looking to build a national operation while her Democratic rivals were still getting off the ground. The investment included building large technological and data teams. The campaign was sitting on $650,000 in debt by the end of the quarter.

Matched with the second quarter, the Clinton campaign has now raised nearly $77 million, just $23 million from its year-end goal. As in the second quarter, the camp's money came largely from big donors, a noted distinction from Sanders' givers. While the Clinton campaign is touting that 93 percent of its donations were from gifts of $100 or less, just $5.2 million of its total summer money came from unitemized donations of $200 or less. Nearly 400,000 donors have given to the Clinton operation overall.

The campaign's new joint fundraising committee with the Democratic National Committee and 33 state parties was also due to disclose its finances on Thursday evening: it brought in $3.1 million and is sitting on $1.75 million in cash on hand.
