Act Blue reported that small Democratic donors flooded its site and donated $27.5 million to Vice President Kamala Harris.
Act Blue posted:
NEW: Small donors raise over $27.5 million on ActBlue in the first 5 hours of Vice President Kamala Harris' presidential campaign. Grassroots supporters are energized and excited to support her as the Democratic nominee.
Harris has also amassed a long list of supporters, ranging from President Joe Biden to Emily's List.
The Kamala Harris train is rolling, and any rich Democratic donors or elites who thought they could get rid of Harris and force an open primary are bound to be disappointed.
Small-donor Democrats are energized, and what was originally a rematch of 2020 has become a fresh-faced battle against Donald Trump.
Trump is already showing his fear of Harris and positioning himself to skip the second presidential debate unless it is aired on Fox News. With one decision, Joe Biden has sent Republicans into turmoil, while Democrats are already rallying behind their choice to lead their party into November against the stale and tired threesome behind Donald Trump.
