Kamala Harris Rakes in $47M in One Day After the Debate as Trump Camp Goes Quiet
Vice President Kamala Harris received $47 million in donations in the 24 hours after her debate against Donald Trump, her campaign said Thursday.
The big boost to her bid for the White House is the best day-long fundraising period she’s had since her record-breaking $81 million haul in her first 24 hours in the race in July, according to The New York Times. Her new $47 million post-debate bump included donations from 600,000 donors, the report added.
The influx of cash is likely to have extended Harris’ already-large funding lead over the Trump campaign. The Republican nominee’s camp ended August with $295 million, while Harris entered September with $404 million in the bank. Last month, Harris and her allies raised almost three times as much as the former president.
