Here’s How Much Kamala Harris Campaign Has Raised In First Week


Kamala Harris has raked in over $200 million during the first week of her presidential campaign.

According to Axios, 66% of her donations were from first-time donors.

Harris for President communications director Michael Tyler, in a press release, stated, “The momentum and energy for Vice President Harris are real – and so are the fundamentals of this race: this election will be very close and decided by a small number of voters in just a few states.”

Check out what Axios reported:

Vice President Kamala Harris brought in $200 million during the first week of her presidential campaign, with 66% of all donations coming from first-time donors, according to the campaign.

Why it matters: President Biden’s decision to step aside as the Democratic presidential nominee upended the 2024 race, giving the party a jolt of enthusiasm and an influx of donations.

Former President Trump and the Republican National Committee had been catching up to Biden and the Democratic National Committee in fundraising before Biden’s extraordinary decision to drop out.

Harris’ fundraising haul will give her campaign a major financial boost as she seeks to officially lock up the party’s nomination and win the White House in November.

Here’s what The New York Post reported:

Vice President Kamala Harris’s campaign enjoyed a mind-boggling $200 million fundraising bonanza in just under a week after President Biden dropped out of the race, according to her team.

By comparison, President Biden’s team took in $63.8 million in the entire month of June, and Donald Trump’s camp netted $21.5 million last month, Federal Election Commission records show.

Perhaps most significantly, the newly rebranded Harris for President campaign claimed that 66% of those donations from the past week stem from first-time contributors during the 2024 cycle.
