Thin Blue Line Stands Behind The Donald: Police Union Throws Weight Behind Trump
Kamala Harris Receives Record-Breaking Donations
A letter from Kamala Harris’ campaign team stated that a vote for Harris is “the best way to support the strength, security and reliability of our democracy and economy.”
Donation Figures
August Donation Figures: Kamala Harris received $361 million (almost 325 million euros) in donations in August alone, according to the Washington Post, citing a spokesperson for Harris’ campaign team. Harris raised nearly three times as much money through donations in August as her Republican opponent Donald Trump, who received 130 million dollars (117 million euros) alone in the same period.
Donor Demographics
According to the spokesperson, 60 percent of donors are women and one in five are registered as either Republican or independent voters. In total, Harris has received more than $615 million (about €553 million) in donations since her official candidacy began in late July.
Financial Advantage
According to the spokesperson, this gives them a financial advantage over Donald Trump, but the numbers still need to be seen in perspective because Harris’ campaign team, with almost 2,000 employees, is significantly larger than Trump’s.
