PALO ALTO — Former Vice President Joe Biden announced to donors at a private fundraiser in Palo Alto on Thursday that he had raised $15 million over the last three months — putting his total below presidential rivals Bernie Sanders and Pete Buttigieg.

“We haven’t raised what a lot of people have — we got started way later than everybody else,” Biden told about 100 donors at Evvia Estiatorio, a white-tablecloth Greek restaurant in downtown Palo Alto. He said his campaign has received “well over half a million contributions.”
