NEW YORK (AP) — Kamala Harris is smashing fundraising records as the Democratic Party’s donors — big and small — open their wallets for the vice president in the immediate aftermath of President Joe Biden's stunning decision to step aside.
In total, Harris’ team raised more than $81 million in the 24-hour period since Biden's announcement — that's according to campaign spokesperson Kevin Munoz.
The massive haul includes money raised across the campaign, the Democratic National Committee and joint fundraising committees.
It represents the largest 24-hour sum reported by either side in the 2024 campaign.
Hours earlier, Future Forward, the largest super PAC in Democratic politics, announced it had secured $150 million in new donor commitments over the same period.
