The Associated Press reports Vice President Kamala Harris raised $27 million at a packed New York City fundraiser on Sunday, marking her largest haul since leading the ticket, according to a Harris campaign aide.
Despite having a financial edge over former President Donald Trump, the funds will be crucial to counter the expensive advertising from well-funded pro-Trump groups, said the aide, who spoke anonymously about private fundraising details.
The event was held at Cipriani Wall Street’s grand Greek Revival ballroom, where Harris challenged Trump on his refusal to debate her again, saying, “I feel strongly that we owe it to the voters to meet once more before Election Day.”
Trump has refused to debate Harris again.
