WASHINGTON - Sen Hillary Rodham Clinton reports raising US$2.7 million (S$34.1 million) from donors in June and ending the month with US$25.2 million in debts after suspending her quest for the presidency.

The former first lady owes US$12 million to vendors and lent herself US$1 million in June for a total loan to her campaign of about US$13.2 million. She suspended her campaign for the Democratic nomination on June 7.
