    From what I just read yesterday, the majority of money was donated to the Biden/Harris campaign, not the DNC. Harris has to be on the ticket for all of that money to follow through, otherwise you are looking at a very small percentage of money transferring.

    For instance, when Sanders dropped out, none of the money he raised automatically went to Clinton or Biden. Campaigns still have to follow campaign contribution laws when they donate to others.

    If Biden drops out (I am leading toward he shouldn’t but fully side with the argument that he should if we lived in a perfect world), Harris has to be on the ticket or Trump is almost certainly the victor based off history alone.

        The way I look at it is, if Biden is as bad as we think he is, Kamala has already been acting as president. If we vote for him and he can’t finish his term, than nothing of note would actually be changed.

        The question is, does she need him on the ticket to beat Trump?
