NEW YORK (AP) — Vice President Kamala Harris raised $27 million at a packed New York City fundraiser on Sunday, her largest fundraising haul since she took over at the top of the ticket from President Joe Biden, according to a Harris campaign aide.

Though Harris has far more money than former President Donald Trump, the money will be needed to compete with pricey advertising by deep-pocketed outside groups that support Trump, said the aide, who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss private fundraising details.

  • It feels important to note that Harris and Trump don't need your money.

    If a candidate can sell $27,000,000 worth of favors off a single event in New York City, then remember that your friends, neighbors, and community are struggling and their mutual aid requests can use your $5-$10 donation much, much more than the POTUS candidates, both of whom have billionaires in their corner.
