Harris-Walz campaign says it raised $36 million in first 24 hours after running mate revealed

Washington — Vice President Kamala Harris' presidential campaign said it raked in $36 million in the 24 hours after she announced Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz as her running mate.

The haul for Harris and Walz continues the run of eyebrow-raising fundraising for the Democratic presidential hopeful that began after she officially announced her run for the White House last month. Harris' campaign said it raised $310 million in July, more than double the amount former President Donald Trump said he raised last month.

The contributions included $200 million the vice president raised in the seven days after President Biden withdrew from the race and Harris launched her White House bid.
