Vice President Kamala Harris’ presidential campaign made headlines on Monday after announcing that it had raised an impressive $81 million within the first 24 hours of her declaring her candidacy for the Democratic nomination.
The campaign's spokesperson, Kevin Munoz, described this achievement as a 'historic outpouring of support' for the vice president. Munoz emphasized that the significant financial backing demonstrated the kind of grassroots energy and enthusiasm that is crucial for winning elections.
During a White House event earlier on the same day, Harris took the opportunity to praise President Joe Biden's legacy. This public appearance marked her first since Biden decided not to seek reelection and endorsed her as his successor.
