Joe Biden Raises $6.3 Million, Topping Rivals’ First-Day Hauls
Former Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr.’s presidential campaign announced Friday that it had raised $6.3 million in its opening 24 hours, the biggest first-day haul of any 2020 candidate, easing concerns among some supporters over whether he would be able to raise the money needed to compete financially in the Democratic primary.
Mr. Biden’s team had viewed his early fund-raising showing as important, not just for the infusion of money but also as a metric by which his nascent candidacy would be measured.
His campaign sent multiple emails asking for donations on Thursday and he attended a high-dollar fund-raiser in the evening.
