Kamala Harris breaks donation record and raises $81 million in a single day

• Harris' team broke the record for the biggest single-day raise in presidential history.
• More than 888,000 grassroots donors contributed, with 60% giving for the first time this election.

Kamala Harris is seeing green, and it's not just because of the Charli XCX Brat memes. It's because she is swimming in a new influx of cash — $81 million, to be exact.

Harris' team amassed the $81 mil in the 24 hours after Joe Biden dropped his reelection bid and endorsed her presidential campaign. The fundraising blitz marks the biggest single-day raise in presidential history.

The money spans donations to the campaign, Democratic National Committee, and joint fundraising committees, her team reports. More than 888,000 grassroots donors contributed, with 60% of them giving for the first time this election cycle. In the single-day span, 43,000 people became recurring donors, more than half of whom signed up for weekly donations.

One grassroots effort, hosted by the group Win with Black Women, even broke Zoom's software. The call reportedly boasted 44,000 participants and raked in $1.5 million in grassroots donations.

Big donors are also reacting to Harris' rise after some pledged to stop giving money should Biden stay in the race. Future Forward, a super PAC, received $150 million worth of new commitments from major donors, Politico reported.

Trump's orbit seems furious about the fundraising. The former president took to Truth Social to bemoan the millions he spent attacking Biden and insisting that he should be "reimbursed for fraud."

Speaking on Fox News, Lara Trump dismissed the fundraising numbers, saying that the money was coming from "millionaires and billionaires."

The Harris campaign, however, is emphasizing the significant number of grassroots donations and broad array of donors.

"Already, we are seeing a broad and diverse coalition come together to support our critical work of talking to the voters that will decide this election," Kevin Munoz, a campaign spokesperson, said.
