Democratic leaders are increasingly anxious about being left with a big bill from Kamala Harris' campaign, which is likely to end millions of dollars in debt, four people familiar with the matter tell Axios.

Why it matters: Debt beyond a few million bucks could hamper the Democratic National Committee's efforts to rebuild the party over the next four years.

The intra-party tension has put scrutiny on how Harris' team — which raised well over $1 billion in less than five months, between the campaign and outside groups — spent its money.

Driving the news: Democratic Party chair Jaime Harrison privately has expressed concerns about the campaign's spending and has asked about the potential level of debt, two people familiar with the matter told Axios.
