US Vice President and virtual Democratic presidential candidate, Kamala Harris has raised more than $200 million and has obtained an army of 170,000 new volunteers for his campaign in less than a week, which shows the enthusiasm that his candidacy has generated.

According to data released by her team on Sunday, Harris has raised those $200 million in less than a week, since the US president on July 21, Democrat Joe Biden ended his re-election campaignand asked Americans to vote for her in November.

Of those 200 million, e66% came from Americans who decided to donate to the campaign for the first timeIn recent days, Harris’ campaign has also recruited more than 170,000 new volunteers who were able to participate in a “weekend of action” on Saturday and Sunday with neighborhood meetings, community meals and door-to-door visits to mobilize voters.

A candidacy that arouses fervour

According to the campaign, volunteers have also been calling Spanish-speaking voters. This weekend alone, in particular, they have organized 2,300 events in the states considered key for the elections, including Arizona and Nevada, where the Latino community vote could play a crucial role, as well as Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Michigan and Georgia.

The fervor surrounding Harris’ candidacy has been reflected in polls, including a survey published Thursday by the newspaper The New York Times and the Siena College higher education center. That survey places former president and Republican candidate Donald Trump (2017-2021) one percentage point ahead of Harris, with 48% of support compared to 47%.

That figure represents a significant improvement Regarding the latest survey of The New York Times and Siena College released earlier this month, in which Trump led Biden by six percentage points.
