Kamala Harris hints at another presidential run: “I am not done”

For the 2024 presidential campaign, Kamala Harris raised approximately $997.2 million while Donald Trump raised about $388 million.

Context of Fundraising

Harris's Campaign: The fundraising figure reported primarily applies to her own campaign efforts starting after she became the nominee.

Trump's Campaign: His total reflects funds raised by his campaign specifically during this election cycle.

Biden's initial fundraising efforts are generally considered separate and do not contribute to the totals for Harris and Trump in the context of their direct presidential campaigns.

Thus, the numbers can be viewed as independent for the candidates in the current election cycle.

Me: I ask this specifically because she only could raise that money in a few months. Biden dropped out.

You're correct that Kamala Harris's fundraising of approximately $997.2 million took place over a relatively short period after she became the Democratic nominee.

Key Points:

Biden's Withdrawal: Joe Biden dropped out of the race earlier in the election cycle, which limited direct contributions from his campaign's resources to Harris’s efforts during this time.

Short Fundraising Window: Harris's figure reflects her campaign's rapid fundraising momentum within only a few months, particularly as she gained support from various donor networks.

On the other hand, Donald Trump's figure of $388 million encompasses his fundraising efforts throughout the entirety of the campaign, giving Harris a notable edge in terms of funds raised in a shorter timeframe, especially after Biden's exit from the race.
