  • Summary

  • Vice President Kamala Harris enjoyed a huge cash infusion to her campaign shortly after it launched this summer, and one of the groups behind this influx were attorneys donating to the Democratic candidate. Attorneys gave more than $8 million to the Harris campaign in just the first 10 days of its existence, according to data analyzed by Bloomberg Law reporters Tatyana Monnay and K. Sophie Will. This is the latest example of the legal profession moving more toward the Democratic column with every passing election cycle. However, despite this fundraising advantage, the Democrats are still waging an uphill fight for control of the House and the Senate in this year's congressional elections. On this episode of our podcast, On The Merits, Bloomberg Government's Greg Giroux explains why an unfavorable Senate map for Democrats may be more than robust fundraising can overcome. Also, Monnay talks about why lawyers are fans of the vice president and why attorneys who back former President Donald Trump are staying low-key.
