The American political machine is fucked up.


But whatever it takes. Spend that money on Pennsylvania, Florida, Texas, Wisconsin, etc

Hope they target Georgia as a victory here would really help down ballot esp. the two Senate races.

What the fuck

I remember the quaint days when candidates would raise 1 billion in total

The American people are ready to move forward.

Edit:

What's insane to me is that this is happening...during a crippling economic depression in the midst of a pandemic. Our people are fed up.

Good news for the Biden campaign and likely the world should he win.

...but damn I can't help but look at this number and shake my head at the insanity of our political process here in the US... It's crazy that choosing our elected leader is a multi-billion dollar enterprise.

The sooner we can get money out of politics the better.

I'm a (small) part of that $383M. It's good to see that he'll have the budget to keep ads coming right up to election day - especially since Trump is struggling.

Throw more support in TX, SC, MT and AK! While continuing to support AZ, MI, WI, PA, MN, NC, GA and FL of course. It can be done, y'all got the money. Force Trump to spend time in states he's more likely to win than the industrial states.

While I'm happy that this will probably make trumps blood pressure spike and hopeful news for this election it's just.... insane and seems off that any politician is able to raise "Roughly 3/4 of a billion dollars" for a campaign"

Especially in the economic disaster we're in right now. This country has plenty of money yet we allow evictions and food lines in a pandemic.

I love how he beats Trump on everything. Trump is that fucking loser no one wants and just won by pure luck. Hope he lands in jail soon.

Anyways best of luck to Joe and his team!

What the actual fuck.



What do you even DO with that much money when there's not even 3 weeks left??

I'd guess shoring up places where he looks good. But then also start dumping money into stretch markets like GA, TX, IA, etc. And also places to help out senators that seem to be polling close. MT, SC, MS, ME, AK, etc.

I'd bombard Florida with a good amount. Trump loses FL, he's fucking toast.

Use the rest on key swing states and ones that are looking pretty good too like Georgia, Iowa and Texas. Like you said, not much time left so might as well spend it all.

Is this sarcastic? Most countries in Europe don't have elections that significantly involve people donating to parties, I guess mostly due to spending limits and advertisement slots on national TV being assigned fairly.

This is the will of the people. Don't let the wealthy few dictate yours years as the president, let the people dictate it.

i think Bloomberg already has Florida covered, but I suppose Biden could always throw some more cash at it

besides all the other swing states, Biden should focus on Pennsylvania, Georgia, and Texas

make them as close as possible

Biden should also go for the Youtube front page spot that Trump always aims for, outspend Trump to get on their the full week prior to the election

My first time donating, and have done so (small amounts) to Biden, McGrath, and Harrison.

I attribute it not only to the energization of millennials and zoomers due to the current administration, but also to the ease and accessibility of mobile Apple pay donations. It's just so simple to be engaged.

I hate it, but I believe in the power of money in our elections. Biden's got it in the bag

helps that other fantastic candidates like Jaime Harrison are also killing it in the cashflow game.

Makes sense, I have never before donated to a candidate and did so for the first time this year for Biden. Just goes to show how badly people want trump ousted.

Oh shit, I wonder if Trump can even afford that YouTube spot this time around
