The Biden-Harris campaign has legally updated its filings with the Federal Election Commission to rename its major committee and designate Kamala Harris a presidential contender.
According to the Campaign Legal Center, Harris may take control of the Biden-Harris campaign account if she remains on the ticket in the general election.
CNN says that the campaign account had roughly $96 million in cash at the end of June.
Metrowatch reported that President Joe Biden on Sunday announced the suspension of his 2024 reelection campaign.
But just hours after Biden withdrew from the race, the campaign committee filed paperwork with the Federal Election Commission, re-designating the committee as “Harris for President.”
The committee also filed a letter with the commission stating that “Vice President Harris is now a candidate for United States President in the 2024 election.”
