Dem donation platform ActBlue processed $41,338,094 in contributions on Tuesday, most of it after news broke that Vice President Kamala Harris had picked Minnesota Gov Tim Walz as her running mate, per the ActBlue tracker at ObservableHQ written by the Marshall Project’s Ryan Murphy.
Now with the caveat that we don’t know yet exactly how much of that went to Harris-Walz as opposed to downballot Dems, the DCCC/DSCC, PACs etc, while also assuming that the vast majority of it in fact did go to the top of the ticket, Tuesday is highly likely to be the second day in the less than three weeks since Joe Biden handed his reelection bid over to Harris that the D ticket broke disgraced former President Trump’s record $34.8 million haul from the day of his conviction.
