Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign raised $81 million in the first 24 hours of her candidacy — a new presidential donation record — following President Biden’s departure from the race.
Harris’ stunning influx of funds injects new energy into the race after Democrats saw Biden’s path to victory rapidly shrink.
