Harris blows Trump away in fundraising—again
This was the blockbuster we all wanted to see.
The Harris Victory Fund—which raises money for Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign, the Democratic National Committee, and state Democratic groups—brought in a record-shattering $633 million in the third quarter, spanning July through September of this year. She spent nearly $600 million, and had $77 million left in the bank at the end of September.
Meanwhile, Trump’s two joint fundraising committees, Trump National Committee JFC and Trump 47 Committee, collectively raised just under $340 million. In other words, a lot less.
America PAC, which is doing much of Trump’s get out the vote operation, received $74.95 million from Elon Musk, its sole benefactor. Miriam Adelson, wife of the late casino mogul and big Trump donor Sheldon Adelson, gave $100 million to her own super PAC. Collectively, they were still swamped by Harris’ fundraising juggernaut.
Overall, the Harris campaign, together with Democratic groups, has brought in over $1 billion.
