Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign raised $200 million after President Biden stepped down from the presidential race.
The Associated Press reports the 59-year-old raised the astounding number in just one week.
You may want to start calling the VP ‘Cash Up Kamala. She’s drawing in MEGA numbers for her campaign. The majority of the donations (66%) came from 1st-time contributors.
These donations were made after Biden announced his exit from the presidential race and backed Kamala. In addition, 170,000 volunteers are ten toes down for the likely Democratic nominee and her bid to secure the White House.
The election is a mere 100 days away, and these individuals will call, canvass, and do everything in their power to make sure citizens cast their vote for Harris.
Citizens quickly shifted their support after Biden left the race. As earlier reported by The Shade Room, there had been intense calls for the President to surrender the Democratic ticket.
Harris’ campaign rally on July 27, initially intended for Biden, surpassed expectations. Hundreds of attendees at the Pittsfield, Massachusetts rally was projected to raise $400,000. But, they more than tripled the amount to $1.4 million.
Kamala said she was the “underdog” during her rally speech, but the bankroll definitely gave big dawg energy.
