US: Who is ahead and who is behind in the race?
The battle for advertising and donations during the US presidential election has intensified more than ever. During this time, Vice President Kamala Harris's face was shown on the giant Las Vegas Sphere, earning $450,000 per day for the most expensive political advertisement in history. The move is just a small part of the nearly $1 billion war chest created since Kamala Harris came into the Democratic spotlight this election season. At the same time, Democrats are taking advantage of the power of ActBlue in raising funds, which has raised more than $113 million in donations. At the same time, the republican party retaliated on the fund racing engine WinRed.
According to 'Bloomberg', the first election candidates of the US presidential election, political groups and PACs have so far spent a total of $14.7 billion, which is about 92 percent of the amount spent in this election. According to the Federal election Committee, more than 11,000 political groups, from big business names like Elon Musk to smaller names, have donated during the 2024 elections. At the same time, more than $ 100,000 was spent. The outlet reported that both political parties collected more than $ 113 million in donations and distributed a combined $ 4.5 billion to campaigns and committees.
