Vice President Kamala Harris ran a costly and inevitably failed campaign. And even though she was able to raise massive amounts of money, she is still at least $20 million in debt.
Federal Election Commission filings show Harris’ campaign for the presidency raised over $1 billion and spent approximately $900 million by mid-October. However, by the end of the month, filings and reports from the campaign note that her remaining funds were depleted – and then some.
This is in contrast to the fiscally responsible campaign of President-elect Donald Trump. FEC filings showed his campaign raised a little under $400 million and, by the end of the election, still had cash reserves of around $36 million.
Sources who spoke with news outlets like Breitbart reported that the Harris campaign is largely blaming campaign chair Jen O’Malley Dillon for the vice president’s financial troubles.
Christopher Cadelago, the California bureau chief for POLITICO, wrote the information on X, citing two separate sources familiar with the situation. “Kamala Harris’ campaign ended with at least $20 million in debt, per two sources familiar. Harris raised over $1 billion and had $118 million in the bank as of Oct. 16,” Cadelago posted.
Breitbart writer Matthew Boyle also confirmed the claims, citing a Kamala campaign staffer who told him that O’Malley Dillon allegedly “blew through a billion dollars in a few months.”
The source further charged that O’Malley Dillon booked all of the campaign’s “concerts” featuring high-profile – and expensive – celebrities like Katy Perry, Lizzo, Eminem and Bruce Springsteen. While the performers donated their time and talent, the sets still required an immense commitment of manpower and financial resources.
“They had huge advance teams for these concerts, like 40 to 60 people in some cities,” said an insider who noted how they were concerned about the financial impact on people who worked to elect Harris.
In the week before Election Day, as campaign bosses became aware that nearly all of their more than $1 billion war chest was gone, there were efforts to scale back concert costs — which were expected to run between $15 million and $20 million.
O’Malley Dillon reportedly focused on these concerts at the expense of “prioritizing and spending money on social media and other campaign priorities.” (Related: Democrat consultants who joined Team Kamala turned out to be CROOKS who deceived donors, vacuumed up all their cash and fled.)
“People didn’t like working with her,” the staffer further noted, adding that they felt O’Malley Dillon was “obnoxious and very much a gatekeeper and interfering with the vice president’s people who were trying to do their job.”
Boyle further noted that several people on Harris’ staff are awaiting overdue salary payments and that Rob Flaherty, the deputy campaign manager, is reportedly “currently shopping around the Kamala fundraising email list to anyone who wants” to try to raise money to cover the $20 million debt.
“They said they were ‘spending to zero.’ I guess they overshot zero,” quipped another source.
Data from AdImpact revealed that, of the approximately $1 billion war chest the Democrats had for Harris, a little under $700 million was spent toward advertising, with some of the biggest spending campaigns purchased in October, including a six-figure sum that went toward flying massive banners over four National Football League games in swing states.
In the final weeks before the election, the campaign also spent nearly $500,000 a day on ads displayed on the Las Vegas Sphere in Nevada, another key swing state.
