A Bloomberg review of ActBlue data shows that Democrats raised more than $50 million online Sunday after Joe Biden announced his exit from the 2024 presidential reelection race, and endorsed his vice-president, Kamala Harris. Biden couldn’t leverage the deep relationships and ties developed over five decades in Washington to stave off the calls for him to step aside in the race against Donald Trump. Kamala Harris’ first task in formally securing the Democratic presidential nomination will be to corral her former congressional colleagues, newly emboldened after a successful pressure campaign to force their party’s leader, Joe Biden, off the 2024 ballot.
