WASHINGTON, July 21 (UPI) -- Former Democratic Party U.S. presidential candidate Sen. Hillary Clinton is having trouble retiring her campaign debt and has lent it more money, records show.

Federal Election Commission records show Clinton, D-N.Y., lent her suspended campaign organization $1 million in personal funds June 30, taking her total personal contributions to her presidential run up to $13.2 million, The New York Times reported Monday.

Meanwhile, her debt totals continued to grow. Records indicated Clinton owed $10.4 million to vendors at the end of May but a month later that figure has risen to $12 million.

Clinton spokesman Mo Elleithee told the Times the latest $1 million loan was made to "pay immediately outstanding debts."
