Democratic presidential candidates ramp up fundraising efforts following former Vice President Joe Biden’s presidential campaign announcement.
In the hours after Biden’s campaign released a video announcing his 2020 bid, several candidates sent emails to motivate recipients to give to their campaigns.“As of this morning, my friend Joe Biden is now running for president. And you know what I say to that? The more, the merrier,” said Harris.Sen. Cory Booker and Beto O’rourke’s emails had a more tepid tone.“We aren’t starting with the same level of name recognition as Joe Biden,” read O’Rourke’s campaign email.
For candidates still working to secure a spot on the debate stage, fundraising is vital. According to DNC rules, there are two ways candidates qualify for the debates. Candidates must receive donations 65,000 people across 20 states with 200 unique donors in each state or they must reach 1 percent in three state or national polls.
In an email to voters, Julián Castro acknowledged that he isn’t a frontrunner in this field of Democratic candidates and said he needs “less than 8,000 donors” to qualify for primary debates. “I didn’t grow up a frontrunner,” said Castro. “And I know this country wasn’t built by frontrunners either. It was built by families like yours and mine who toiled to achieve opportunity.”“If you want me on that stage, we need to add 500 donors before Friday at midnight, and I’m counting on you to be one of them,” said Gillibrand.
