Vice President Kamala Harris’ presidential campaign raked in $81 million in the 24 hours after President Biden ended his bid for reelection and Harris announced she would be seeking the Democratic presidential nomination, her campaign said Monday.
The eye-popping haul includes money raised across Harris’ campaign, the Democratic National Committee and joint fundraising committees, and underscores the vice president’s enormous financial advantage over any potential challengers for the Democratic nomination. It is the largest amount of money raised in a 24-hour span in presidential history, according to Team Harris.
