Ted Cruz raises more than $1 million online since debate

Sen. Ted Cruz has raised $1.1 million since Thursday, figures his presidential campaign is pointing to as a surge in support following the first televised presidential debate.

The Texas Republican on Monday issued a press release touting the fundraising and social media activity, and also appeared to tweak front-runner Donald Trump's "make America great again" campaign slogan. The Cruz campaign said it had received more than 10,000 contributions online averaging $54.77 each, with campaign web page views at 296,000; impressions from Facebook posts at 20.5 million and impressions from tweets at 12.3 million.

"The wave of grassroots support is growing. The outpouring of financial support shows that Americans are ready for someone who will tell the truth and has consistently done what they said they'd do. They are ready for a consistent conservative who has fought to break the Washington Cartel and will fight to make America great again," read the press release.

Cruz is in the midst of a Southern states bus tour, targeting those states that are set to vote next March in a super Tuesday "SEC primary" contest.
