Grassroots organizers raise millions online for Harris in first week [Video]

“Join the call.” That viral appeal has gone out almost daily since Vice President Kamala Harris launched her presidential campaign last week after President Biden withdrew from the 2024 race.

Links for Zoom webinars and organizing calls are popping up on social media feeds and email listservs across a diverse range of demographic groups that could be integral to Harris’ coalition. More than $15 million has been raised by virtual grassroots gatherings over the past week, according to a CBS News analysis. 

The latest call is scheduled Monday with “White Dudes for Harris.” Vice presidential prospects North Carolina Governor Roy Cooper and Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg are expected to speak on the call, according to two sources familiar with the details.

“We know that as white dudes, we have both a strong, and positive role to play in America’s shared future,” stated the group, which expects 50,000 men to join.
