The Democratic National Committee (DNC) is hosting several major donor fundraisers in the coming weeks to raise funds for the 2024 campaigns, with US President Joe Biden as a featured guest. However, the 80-year-old leader has yet to announce his own candidacy to stay in power.
Reports in US media on Thursday said the DNC would hold fundraisers for wealthy donors in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and New York in the coming weeks to coincide with Biden’s visits to those cities. Vice President Kamala Harris is also expected to attend DNC fundraisers in the same cities.
A source was quoted in US media as saying that these are “indeed the typical actions of a president who is preparing to run for re-election.”
“We’ve been told to expect fundraising to ramp up in March and April,” said a donor who backed Biden in the 2020 election.
The DNC aims to raise at least $500 million for Biden, who became the first candidate in US history to raise $1 billion during his ultimately successful 2020 presidential campaign. That number included 580 million dollars raised for Biden by outside groups. Additionally, Democrats are likely to face tough challenges in a number of congressional districts, thanks to a mix of redesigned districts and Biden’s low approval rating.
In the 2022 midterm elections last November, Democrats lost nine key House seats, resulting in a slim Republican majority. However, Democrats marked this as a victory, as a “red wave” of GOP victories had been anticipated by both parties. The Democrats also secured a Senate seat – before Arizona Sen. Kyrsten Sinema announced her departure from the party and registration as an independent in December.
