Vice President Kamala Harris's campaign fell $20 million in debt during the final week of her campaign, according to sources. Politico reported that Harris raised over $1 billion and had $118 million in the bank as of October 16. A Kamala campaign staffer confirmed that the reports that Harris's campaign was $20 million in debt are real, and that Jen O'Malley Dillon, the Harris campaign chair, reportedly blew through a billion dollars in a few months. The concerts held with celebrities such as Katy Perry, Lizzo, Eminem, and Bruce Springsteen were reportedly "all Jen's idea." As a result of being $20 million in debt, Rob Flaherty, the deputy campaign manager for Harris's campaign, is currently shopping around the Kamala fundraising email list to anyone who wants" to try to raise the money back for the campaign.
O'Malley Dillon prioritized the concerts with celebrities at the expense of other campaign priorities such as spending money on social media. Many people on the campaign felt like they lost because Kamala wasn't allowed to run her campaign, and many people still awaiting several overdue payments they were promised for their work. Kaelan Dorr, with MAGA Inc., had been flagging the strange financial activities and check writing of Harris's presidential campaign prior to the election.
