Harris keeps bringing in new money as Trump struggles to grow his donor base

Kamala Harris’ fundraising operation has been so dominant that she has brought in more new donors than Donald Trump every single day heading into the final stretch of the election.
The vice president’s financial advantage is well-known, but most of the attention has gone to the candidates’ respective money totals. That money has allowed Harris to build up a much greater campaign apparatus than Trump, while the former president has had to rely more on outside super PACs for support.
But in some ways it’s the donors, not the money, that’s most revealing. Donors are a subset of voters, tending to reflect the most engaged supporters on either side. And Harris has a massive donor advantage: Her operation, carried over from President Joe Biden, has more than twice as many donors as Trump's campaign apparatus.
