Where did Harris's $1 billion go? After a 3-month campaign, Harris surprisingly spent up to $1 billion, even leaving a $40 million deficit.
Where did the money go? Everyone probably has their guesses.
In a call her daddy interview, she claimed to have spent $100,000 on a 1:1 broadcasting studio model, which could have been done for a few thousand. If she herself wasn't pocketing the money, it’s very likely that her subordinate team was lining their own pockets.
Whether it's marketing packaging, various materials, or performances, it all costs money at every level. It's very easy to involve friends and relatives at each layer, but if it goes wrong, it could end up as a small studio on the side of the road. Otherwise, it's really hard to explain why so much money was spent.
Look at Trump, who campaigned for a full year, raised a total of $400 million, and ended up with over $50 million unspent. The comparison is really hard to evaluate.
In contrast, Harris spent the money, owes debts, has a bad reputation, and lost the campaign. If she didn't even profit from it, then this loss is just too severe.
