The Biden-Harris reelection campaign announced on Monday it has $117 million on hand, in what aides claim is the largest sum for any Democratic candidate in history at this point in the race.

The president and vice president’s team said it raised more than $97 million in the fourth quarter of 2023. The total includes fundraising efforts by the campaign, joint fundraising committees and the Democratic National Committee.

In the third quarter of 2023, the Biden-Harris campaign announced it raised more than $71 million, and had nearly $91 million cash on hand. The team raised more than $72 million in the second quarter last year, with $77 million cash.

The campaign early Monday stressed grassroots fundraising efforts in the fourth quarter and hailed the fundraising haul as a historic achievement.

“This historic haul—proudly powered by strong and growing grassroots enthusiasm—sends a clear message: the Team Biden-Harris coalition knows the stakes of this election and is ready to win this November,” Julie Chavez Rodriguez, Biden-Harris campaign manager, said in a statement announcing the numbers.

=117 million votes!

[OttawaFreeper]

Probably from three to five benefactors.

When you don’t DO anything…its easy to save money.

[alternatives?]

Inflation will do that.

[Right Brother]

War chest? Whatever. The media works for free. No campaign funding needed.

[Jane Long]

CCP can help!

[brownsfan]

Just making stuff up to cover for the coming epic cheat.

[GOPJ]

National and Global Elites have lots of spare money for people they KNOW CAN BE BOUGHT... OUR Country is worth billions.

Look what Ukraine got for their money. Billions of US taxpayer dollars.

[MinorityRepublican]

Inflation will do that.

Yes and no. All the corporations used to give money to the GOP candidates. Romney. Both Bushes. Etc.

It stopped with Trump. So the Democrats get 90% of the funds from the corporations now.

Chinese donors know where their bread is buttered.

[ProtectOurFreedom]

Is it the Biden Crime Family Grifting War Chest?

[gibsonguy]

This is probably true. Think of Blackrock and Vangaurd. They are covering Disney’s losses. Losing almost a Billion dollars in one year is worth it for the cause. So fully funding a corrupt lying scumbag like Biden comes easily.

[Recovering_Democrat]

Local Miami media has reported this with breathless joy. I am betting most of this money is laundered. They ruined election integrity, they’ve likely ruined honest election funding.

And no one will investigate.

[tinamina]

Laundered it from Ukraine. Our tax dollars.

[MinorityRepublican]

This is probably true. Think of Blackrock and Vangaurd.

And no one is going to audit the DNC or the Biden/Harris campaign team.

“This historic haul sends a clear message: Team Biden-Harris know the stakes of this election and are ready to win,” Julie Chavez Rodriguez, Biden-Harris campaign manager, said announcing the munificent fund-raising numbers.

That’s so true.......every voter knows Kamala Harris is the most articulate VP we’ve ever had,
and so very knowledgeable on every subject. I’m just surprised she couldnt raise double the amount.....she’s such an outstanding candidate.

And what Biden has done for the US economy is outstanding. Added to Biden’s extraordinary appeal is his beloved surviving son, so honest and straight forward, a huge asset to America. Not to mention the money-raising abilities of the entire Biden family

[Common Sense 101]

Makes perfect sense to me... who wouldn’t want four more years of this Demonic Party leftard insanity?

[parmamenian]

Probably money from China and Iran!

[rlmorel]
