This claim is true. The Kamala Harris campaign has raised $685,107,477 through candidate committee money and $336,990,393 through outside money. The Donald Trump campaign has only raised $306,776,892 through candidate committee money and $335,429,423 through outside money.

Answer 1

This fact-check claim is true: Donald Trump's ten committee groups have raised around $642 million through 2024 whereas Kamala's top ten groups have raised over $1.02 billion. It is worth noting that Kamala has only been the Democratic Presidential candidate for three months as opposed to Trump who has been campaigning since he lost in 2020.

Which of Kamala's groups had raised the most money within the sum of 1.02 billion dollars?

This fact check is well rounded in the sense that it has information with real data that states the overview and then has links with it to provide info for what was just stated, providing more info on the committees would make the factcheck more bulletproof and leave no room for questions.

I agree with this claim. I looked into opensecrets.org as I was curious as to where they received their information, in which they say that they receive it from both official government sources and across 527 committees from the Internal Revenue Service. Additionally, Congress and the Federal Election Commission post finance data specific to the presidential election.

Answer 2

This seems to be correct. according to opensecrets.org. The Center for Responsive Politics (CRP) is a non-profit, nonpartisan research group based in Washington, D.C. that tracks the effects of money and lobbying on elections and public policy. I looked it up on all sides.com and apparently open secrets is unbiased and center political rating with 1,508 ratings. According to them, Trump has raised $642,206,315 overall this year and has spent $460,100,149. However Kamala Harris has raised a whopping total of $1,022,097,870 and has spent $707,146,612. If you click on the link here ([Summary data for Kamala Harris, 2024 cycle](https://www.opensecrets.org/2024-presidential-race/kamala-harris/candidate?id=N00036915)) and stroll down you can see the organization, whether their pro or against, the type of organization and the total money raised. Although this might not be the most reliable source, OpenSecrets say they receive their data from an official government source and they “add value to it with additional processing and research”.

Answer 3

According to OpenSecrets.org, which is run by the Center for Responsive Politics (CRP), a non-profit and nonpartisan group based in Washington, D.C., the organization tracks the influence of money and lobbying on elections and public policy. Their ratings are considered unbiased, with a solid score based on 1,508 assessments. As of this year, Donald Trump has raised about $642 million across his ten committee groups and he has spent around $460 million. Well in contrast, Kamala Harris has raised an impressive $1.02 billion in just three months of campaigning! And having spent approximately $707 million. This is noteworthy, especially considering Trump has been campaigning since losing the 2020 election.
