Harris Campaign Reports Record Fundraising Haul, Outraising Trump 3 to 1 in September

HeadlineOct 24, 2024

Kamala Harris’s campaign and allied groups raised $378 million in September, helping to break the record for the largest quarterly campaign fundraising haul in U.S. history, according to new Federal Election Commission data. Major Harris donors include Facebook co-founder Dustin Moskovitz, Illinois’s billionaire Democratic Governor J.B. Pritzker and cryptocurrency billionaire Chris Larsen. The New York Times reports billionaire Microsoft founder Bill Gates recently donated about $50 million to a nonprofit backing Harris.

Donald Trump’s campaign reports it raised $160 million in September. That includes over $14 million from a handful of oil and gas industry executives, coming after Trump told fossil fuel companies he would roll back environmental protections in exchange for $1 billion in campaign contributions.
