“As of 9pm ET, grassroots supporters have raised $46.7 million through ActBlue following Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign launch. This has been the biggest fundraising day of the 2024 cycle. Small-dollar donors are fired up and ready to take on this election,” said ActBlue in a statement on the actual quantifiable change that Kamala Harris has brought to the campaign.
UPDATE 7/22/2024 6:05 AM EDT: Make that $49.6 million, per CNN’s Edward-Isaac Dovere, who notes that it’s already eclipsed disgraced former President Trump’s $34.5 million haul in the 24 hours or so after May 30th, when a jury in Manhattan convicted him on 34 felony counts for interfering in the 2016 election by illegally covering up his hush money payoffs to a pornstar.
