Pete Buttigieg raised more than $24.7 million during the final three months of 2019, his campaign announced early Wednesday morning -- cementing his standing as one of the fundraising leaders of the 2020 Democratic presidential race.

Elizabeth Warren's campaign publicly announced late last month that it had collected more than $17 million.
