Donald Trump, Kamala Harris spend $3.5B in most expensive presidential election

Democrat Kamala Harris and Republican Donald Trump have together spent $3.5 billion in their race for the White House, making the 2024 presidential campaign the most expensive US general election in history, reported from the Financial Times.

With the two candidates running neck and neck as voters headed to the polls on election day, final filings in mid-October show that the campaigns, outside groups and party committees have collectively raised almost $4.2 billion.

Harris outraised her Republican opponent, with groups including the Democratic National Committee and affiliated fundraising vehicles — among them Super Pacs, which can raise unlimited amounts from individuals — attracting more than $2.3 billion and spending $1.9 billion. Trump groups and the Republican National Committee took in just over $1.8 billion and spent $1.6 billion.
