Washington — Vice President Kamala Harris’ marketing campaign raised greater than thrice as a lot cash as former President Donald Trump in September, even because the polls stay neck and neck. And each campaigns spent greater than they took in final month, as they make the ultimate push to win over and prove voters forward of Nov. 5.
Harris’ most important marketing campaign committee, Harris for President, raised $221.8 million and spent $269.8 million final month. Harris headed into October with $187.5 million money readily available, based on a Federal Election Fee submitting launched Sunday.
Trump’s marketing campaign raised $62.7 million in September, ending the month with $119.7 million money readily available, based on the marketing campaign’s FEC submitting. The Trump marketing campaign spent $77.6 million.
These figures do not embrace different pro-Harris and pro-Trump political motion committees, which account for a large quantity of the general cash spent to help the candidates.
Harris loved a flurry of donations in July and August after President Biden withdrew from the race and he or she grew to become the Democratic nominee for president.
Harris’ huge fundraising benefit hasn’t translated within the polls. The most recent CBS Information/YouGov ballot reveals Harris barely edging Trump nationally, 51% to 48%, and main by only one level on common in battleground states.
Harris, Trump and their operating mates are in an all-out dash to the end line in battleground states. Trump spent Sunday in Pennsylvania, which he gained in 2016 however Mr. Biden gained in 2020, serving clients at a McDonald’s. And the previous president is blitzing hurricane-damaged North Carolina on Monday. Harris is making appearances Monday in Philadelphia, Detroit and Milwaukee alongside former Republican Rep. Liz Cheney.
