Kamala Harris' Presidential Campaign Surges with $200 Million in Donations

Nearly a week after US President Joe Biden exited the presidential race and endorsed Kamala Harris, her campaign has raised two hundred million dollars. The majority of donations came from first-time contributors, and over 170,000 volunteers have joined the effort. Despite strong Democratic support, polls show a close race between Harris and Trump.
Nearly a week after US President Joe Biden exited the presidential race and endorsed his deputy Kamala Harris as his successor, the Vice President's campaign has raised two hundred million dollars, Al Jazeera reported.

The campaign announced on Sunday that 66 percent of the donations came from first-time contributors in the 2024 election cycle.

Additionally, over 170,000 volunteers have signed up to support Harris with various campaign activities.

"The momentum and energy for Vice President Harris is real," said Michael Tyler, the campaign's communications director.

In contrast, Donald Trump's campaign reported raising 331 million dollars in the second quarter, surpassing the Democratic campaign's 264 million dollars.

Harris quickly garnered Democratic support after Biden's candidacy sputtered.

Key endorsements came from politicians such as Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, and Barack Obama.

Despite the enthusiasm, the Democratic National Convention next month will ultimately decide if Harris becomes the party's nominee.

Harris expressed optimism at a Saturday fundraiser, acknowledging that her campaign is gaining traction.

Meanwhile, Trump labeled Harris as a "crazy liberal" and criticized her policies during a campaign appearance in Minnesota.

With 100 days left until the elections, polls indicate a close race between Harris and Trump, according to Al Jazeera.
