These are fascinating times we live in and I am loving it.
I’ve been looking into Kamala Harris' impressive $361 million fundraising haul in August, and I have to say, pollsters are probably pulling their hair out, going, "But... but... the polls said it would be close!" Well, I’m here to say the polls are irrelevant at this point, and these numbers only reinforce that.
Here’s the breakdown:
-
20% of August donors were registered Republicans or Independents. That’s a huge deal. If she can sway even 5% of Republicans who might have voted for TFG, it could make a massive difference.
-
60% of donors were women. Now, isn’t that something? TFG and his team keep poking the bear, and that bear—women voters—is about to strike back. Come November 5th, I expect they’ll be out in full force, ready to deliver a crushing blow to TFG’s campaign.
-
3 million individual donors contributed to the campaign. Call me crazy, but that’s a serious sign of momentum. Just imagine what the numbers will look like after debate night—I can hardly wait!
-
75% of voters had not contributed to a campaign before. I am telling you this win will be Barack Obama 2.0 margins. Let them keep throwing those polls at us. We know they need work but I am sure they are missing Kamala’s silent majority.

That said, we’ve still got a fight ahead of us. It’s not over until it’s over, so let’s keep pushing, leave no doubt, and claim victory! Let’s do this!
