I wonder where Hillary found $20 million to pay off her campaign debt?????

https://www.foxnews.com/politics/kamala-harris-owes-1m-vendors-presidential-bid

Hillary Clinton did not pay off her $20 million debt from the 2008 race until 2013

Joe Biden's running mate, Kamala Harris, owes more than $1.1 million in unpaid bills from her failed presidential bid, according to filings with the Federal Election Committee.


Harris, a California senator, raised about $39 million during her 2019 campaign to become the Democratic nominee while spending about $40 million, the filings show. She suspended her campaign in December amid a drop in polling and a lack of money.


According to Bloomberg News, which first reported the story, Harris' campaign owes $523,883 to Perkins Coie LLP, an international law firm whose election lawyers work for top Democrats. TorchStone Global LLC was owed $160,702, and SCRB Strategies, a California political consulting firm, was owed $92,408.

At the end of June, Harris' campaign had just $116,380 in the bank, the filings show, but owed nearly $1.14 million in outstanding debt.

Biden, the presumptive Democratic nominee, tapped Harris as his vice president last week after weeks of speculation. Harris, 55, makes history as the first Black and Indian-American woman to appear on a major party's presidential ticket.

Under federal law, a campaign can't be shut down until it has paid leftover bills.


Although Biden has hosted big-dollar fundraisers with Harris -- the duo raked in nearly $48 million in the 48 hours after he named her as his running mate -- Biden's campaign can only assist minimally, with federal election laws barring it from donating more than $2,000 to assist with the debt.

The Democratic National Committee can give a maximum of $5,000.

However, Biden can ask his supporters to help Harris. In 2008, after engaging in a fierce battle with Barack Obama to become the party's nominee, Hillary Clinton ended her campaign with more than $20 million in debt.


Clinton, the 2016 Democratic nominee, did not pay off her debts until 2013. Then-President Obama aided Clinton, asking his donors to help retire her debt. (As secretary of state, she was legally barred from engaging in political activities such as fundraising). Former President Bill Clinton also sent out fundraising letters on his wife's behalf, raffling off trips, dinners and campaign memorabilia in exchange for donations.

Harris is not the only 2020 hopeful who ended the race owing money to vendors.

Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren has a nearly $1.8 million obligation and $833,313 in the bank.

She will take care of it after reparations or pay it off with blow jobs.

I'd rather she pay it off with BJ's than by giving gov't favors.... As we know they all will.

Jag, thanks for the update. I'm impressed as to how much Harris receives for her BJs. Bill Clinton never paid Lewinsky anywhere near what Harris gets.

That dedbeat John Glenn stiffed his vendors out of $2.4 million for his failed presidential campaign in 1984. At that time the campaign owed the money and there was a law that the csndidste could not pay the csmpaign (which was a different entity, supposedy). Glenn went around saying he wished he could personally pay it off. Then they changed the law so he could. He shut up. Never paid it.


Don't blame me. I voted for Trump.

Democrats would burn this country to the ground, if they could rule over the ashes.

They sure don't have any problem keeping unused campaign donations.

Can’t she just file bankruptcy? That’s what the President has been doing, right?

That statement is so wrong. What source do you have? The fact, "Donald Trump has never filed personal bankruptcy". He has been involved in businesses that have gone bankrupt, four to be exact. Only four failures out of all he has going, when I went to school...success at that level earned an "A" on the report card. What were your grades?

That debt will be covered by the big Dems - it's part of the deal with the nomination.

I just want these suckpuppets to show us how many times Trump has filed personal bankruptcy....

Surely they have cases of that?

Or not. wink

Although Trump has never filed for personal bankruptcy, hotels and casino businesses of his have declared bankruptcy six times between 1991 and 2009 due to its inability to meet required payments
