Both House campaign committees raised roughly $4 million in April, but the National Republican Congressional Committee had a $4 million cash on hand advantage over Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee at the end of the month, according to monthly Federal Election Commission reports filed Friday.
The NRCC ended the month with $9.6 million cash on hand, compared to the DCCC's $5.53 million in the bank. The GOP's cash on hand is more than twice what they had at this point in 2009 as they headed into the 2010 midterms.

The GOP House campaign committee narrowly took in more during April too, raising just over $54,000 more than their Democratic counterpart -- $4.06 million to $4.01 million.
But the DCCC now has less debt than the NRCC for the first time this election cycle, shrinking it to just $7.3 million after beginning the year more than $19.5 million in the red. The DCCC paid down over $666,000 in the debt last month, while the NRCC paid down $500,000
