Harris Has “Biggest Fundraising Day” after Biden Drops Out

Donations totalling at least $45 million swelled Democrat coffers in the hours after Joe Biden dropped out of the presidential race.

According to fundraising platform ActBlue, “As of 9pm ET [Sunday], grassroots supporters have raised $46.7 million through ActBlue following Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign launch.

“This has been the biggest fundraising day of the 2024 cycle.”

A few hours later, the total was said to be $60 million.

Major Democrat donors have already pledged to back Vice President Kamala Harris. According to Newsweek, venture capitalist Reid Hoffman described Harris as “the right person at the right time,” and will now donate more to her campaign than he already has to the defunct Biden campaign.

Wall Street executive Marc Lasry, who helped raise money for Harris when she ran against Biden in the 2020 Democratic primary, is also ready to support her.

Harris has also received high-profile endorsements from the President and from the Clintons, as well as from Alexander Soros, son of George Soros, who wrote on Instagram, “It’s time for us all to unite around Kamala Harris and beat Donald Trump.”

The Obamas, however, have yet to provide their endorsement for Harris, a clear suggestion that Michelle Obama is weighing up a bid for the presidency. In a statement in which he praised Biden as “one of America’s most consequential presidents” and said his decision to remove himself from proceedings reminds us “that he’s a patriot of the highest order,” former president Barack Obama made it clear that the race to be the Democratic nominee is still wide open.

“We will be navigating uncharted waters in the days ahead,” he wrote.

“But I have extraordinary confidence that the leaders of our party will be able to create a process from which an outstanding nominee emerges.”
