In less than three months, since Vice President Kamala Harris officially became the Democratic nominee for president, her campaign has raised over $1 billion. These figures include money raised by the campaign committee and campaign-affiliated joint fundraising on behalf of the Democratic National Committee and state parties, NBC News reported.
In August, the campaign continued to see financial enthusiasm. The campaign raised $361 million in August, which brought her total to more than $615 million since she entered the race, CBS News reported.
However, even with her campaign’s financial wins, the campaign continues to be concerned that billionaire’s donations will pour into former President Donald Trump’s campaign as the nation inches closer to Election Day, especially in key battleground states.
In Pennsylvania, for example, Republicans have spent more than $222 million on ads, CBS News reported. Democrats have a slight lead on spending in the commonwealth, where they’ve spent an estimated $275 million on ads.
As we enter the final stretch, Harris’s campaign said money will continue to be “heavily spent” in key states for advertising, operations, and staffing.
