Vice President Kamala Harris' presidential campaign and related political committees have raised $1 billion since she became the Democratic candidate in July, a source briefed on the matter told Reuters.

Since Harris replaced President Joe Biden on July 21, dollars have flowed into her campaign coffers and affiliated political action committees and Democratic Party at an unprecedented pace. Harris raised $25 million on the day she was named the candidate, and had amassed $500 million in about a month.
