Following President Joe Biden's decision to withdraw from the 2024 presidential race, he endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris, leading to an unprecedented surge in Democratic enthusiasm and fundraising. ActBlue reported raising over $66.8 million within hours of the endorsement, with projections exceeding $100 million in small donations. Major endorsements for Harris include influential figures like George Soros and his son Alex, who emphasized unity to defeat Donald Trump. Prominent Democrats such as California Gov. Gavin Newsom and former President Bill Clinton also expressed their support. Despite some concerns from donors about the rapid consolidation behind Harris, the Democratic Party appears to be rallying firmly around her candidacy.
