    Fuck these headlines.
    She didn’t get 81 million. The DNC and other candidates got a total of 81 million.
    The article says this but the headline is intentionally misleading.

        I gave to the DNC. I specifically did not give to the Joe Biden or Harris reelection fund. I imagine others are in the same boat - telling him their congressperson to push Joe out or they wouldn’t give.
        Its lazy reporting and dishonesty on part of actblue

          Your situation is entirely anecdotal. I am not denying that some donators are not donating to Kamala specifically.

          But did you donate in the last 24-48 hours? If so, why if not for Kamala. If not, then you’re not the people I’m asking about.

          Lots more donations came in for a reason. I am asking for you to define what that reason would be.

              Surely that makes no sense. Why would a donator that doesn’t like Kamala donate money immediately within 24 hours, when Kamala was almost certainly going to be the next pick?

              It doesn’t make sense.
