Vice President Harris likely has a strong claim to the funds, but not all legal experts agree. Moreover, the Federal Election Commission works too slowly to make much of an impact on the race.
The Biden campaign said it had $240 million cash on hand at the beginning of July. It likely burned through a good deal of that on ads, staffing and the like since then, but now that President Biden is out, there’s a question of whether any other candidate would or should have access to that money.
Regardless, practically speaking, the question may be moot in the short term because of how long the Federal Election Commission takes to adjudicate complaints. Harris would almost certainly have access to the funds through the compressed campaign, and there’s little to nothing the FEC can do about it because of the timeline.Sean Cooksey, the chairman of the FEC, is a Republican appointed by former President Donald Trump.
She points to the fact that Harris’ name was always on the statement of organization for the Biden presidential campaign committee as one of the candidates.
