DNC pays $1.6 million more for Kamala Harris' campaign debt

"Harris spent an unprecedented $1.5 billion during her 107-day campaign, and invoices continue to roll into the DNC nearly a year later."

"The DNC had only about $12 million in cash on hand by the end of September, as the party made investments in campaigns in Virginia and New Jersey, along with other state parties."

"Flashback: The DNC also was on the hook for more than $20 million in debt after Barack Obama's reelection in 2012. Even with Obama helping to raise funds in the years afterward, the DNC didn't fully pay off the debt until 2015. That left the committee in a vulnerable position heading into the 2016 election, which Hillary Clinton ultimately lost to Donald Trump."

Harris spent $1.5 billion during a 107-day campaign, and invoices from that effort continue to arrive at the DNC nearly a year later. The DNC reported roughly $12 million in cash on hand by the end of September while investing in Virginia, New Jersey, and other state party efforts. The committee typically covers post-presidential campaign debts, but remaining obligations can hinder rebuilding for the next cycle. Democratic officials remain uncertain about the total outstanding debt from the Harris campaign. The DNC previously carried more than $20 million in post-2012 debt that was not cleared until 2015.
