New Currents of Campaign Cash

I'm David Brancatche Vice President Kamala Harris's camp is poised to inherit just under 100 million dollars from what was the Biden Harris campaign, now that she's running for the top

job some Republican allied people plan to challenge that but the Harris campaign

brought in an additional $100 million after Sunday's shake up a record for a 24-hour period.

Plus the biggest aggregator of campaign funds for Democrats, the future forward super PAC,

says it has $150 dollars in new commitments from

donors who were previously quote stalled uncertain or uncommitted.

Here's Marketplace's Savannah Mar.

Republicans pushing back on Harris's ability to inherit campaign funds raised with Biden at the top of the ticket

probably won't get far, says Michael Kang, a professor of campaign finance law at Northwestern.

Even if the Republican arguments against Harris using the money were stronger.

And so far, Kang says they're pretty unconvincing.

Really campaign finance law enforcement right now is pretty weak.

So Kang says the Harris campaign can count on starting with a healthy budget.

And it'll spend it differently than if Biden were still at the top of the ticket.

Nicole Lavedia, with the media intelligence firm BIA Advisory Services,

says this was a race between two well-known candidates

without much new information to deliver to voters. We were expecting the

Democrats on a Biden-led ticket to really be pushing come out to vote.

If you don't vote, then Trump will win.

Ovedia says those ads would have ramped up in September and October,

but with Harris likely taking over?
