- Kamala Harris is already seeing a wave of big money donor support since President Joe Biden dropped out of the race.
- Some of the party’s top financiers opted to hold back funds after Biden’s June debate performance drew concerns from Democrats about his mental acuity.
- The progressive donation platform ActBlue said it raised $46.7 million after Biden endorsed Harris.
maybe Donald will see how much money he can raise if he drops out
I just donated to her campaign.

Wealthy politicians don’t need your money. You should give your money to people who need it.
That’s quite an assumption you’re making. I also donate money and time volunteering.
That’s not the point. They don’t need your money regardless of having already donated to those who do need it. Of course do whatever you want with your money, but you’re being scammed.
Y’all were worried about people not voting if Biden ran. That kind of sentiment and pressure was a huge contributor to this move. Demand more of your politicians. We control them. Don’t let them control you.
I hate to say it, but it would not surprise me one bit if Harris loses in November because Rust Belt moderates in PA, WI, and MI wouldn’t vote for a black woman.
I hope I’m wrong, but right now, for me, that’s the least surprising of possible futures.
You trade some votes for others. I think dems are fucked either way cuz they focused on Biden for too long and didn’t give another candidate time to build trust and hype. Really poor politics on their part. They fumbled this election in spectacular fashion.
Well put.
Why do they even need money? I don’t get it. Other democracies work just fine without these massive amounts of money.
