The Democratic National Convention is in full swing at the United Center, with Democratic delegates filling the convention hall floor. However, the real focus of Vice President Kamala Harris' campaign lies in the skyboxes, where Democratic donors have gathered in support.
Since Harris became the Democratic nominee, her campaign has successfully raised an impressive $500 million, making it one of the most well-funded campaigns in recent history. The campaign team is optimistic that tonight's fundraising efforts will be the most significant yet.
For Democratic donors, attending tonight's convention is a highly sought-after opportunity. Initially, there were concerns about filling the skyboxes, but now there is a high demand from donors eager to contribute to the Harris campaign.
Many prominent donors and supporters are watching the convention from downtown Chicago, with plans for Harris to meet with some of them after the event. The campaign's substantial financial advantage over the Trump campaign in recent months has been a strategic asset.
Despite this advantage, the Harris campaign is not resting on its laurels. With seven battleground states in focus, the campaign aims to raise an additional half-billion dollars in the upcoming month to finance crucial TV advertising. The primary objective is to sustain the campaign's momentum and allow Vice President Harris to focus on engaging with voters rather than fundraising.
