2020 ELECTION/CAMPAIGN FINANCE/JOE BIDEN: “Democratic challenger Joe Biden outraised President Donald Trump by $10 million in June, marking the second straight month the former vice president posted a greater campaign fundraising haul than the Republican incumbent.

Biden and the Democratic National Committee’s fundraising arm jointly raised more than $141 million in June, his campaign said Wednesday, its most in a single month. The money includes boosts from President Barack Obama, Sen. Elizabeth Warren and Sen. Kamala Harris, each whom hosted virtual fundraisers for Biden in June.

Trump and the Republican National Committee raised $131 million in June, also a ‘record-setting’ figure for the president, the Trump campaign said, eclipsing any one-month total from Trump’s 2016 campaign.”
