WASHINGTON (AP) -- Barack Obama's office says the Democratic candidate is second to none in campaign cash.

The presidential hopeful raised more than 40 million dollars last month. The Obama campaign says that included more than 200-thousand first-time contributors, boosting his vast network of donors to nearly 1.3 million.

That amount will likely give him a huge financial advantage over his Democratic rival. Hillary Rodham Clinton is expected to have raised about 20 million dollars in March -- about half Obama's total. Her campaign has not yet announced totals for last month.

In February, Obama raised a record 55 million dollars. Clinton raised 34.5 million.
