Democratic National Committee Chair Jaime Harrison announced the news Friday. Although the online voting process doesn’t end until Monday, Harris crossed the threshold she needed on Friday.

Her campaign raked in a staggering $310 million in fundraising in July, in what her campaign touted as "the biggest haul of the 2024 cycle." The fundraising was more than double the $138.7 million that Donald Trump's campaign brought in last month.
