Joe Biden just posted the best fundraising numbers of his campaign _ thanks in part to the big donors of his vanquished opponents.
The former vice president raised nearly $1 million in the fourth quarter of 2019 from more than 950 contributors who had previously given to a Democratic presidential candidate who is no longer in the race, a McClatchy analysis of new campaign finance records found.
Biden received the biggest boost from former financial backers of Kamala Harris, who dropped out of the race in early December. Nearly 400 donors to the California senator's White House bid collectively poured in close to $400,000 to Biden's campaign in the final three months of last year.
