Conservative group and GOP state parties file FEC complaint against Vice President Kamala Harris, accusing her of improperly assuming control of Biden campaign funds after he withdrew from the race. The complaint alleges that Harris changed the campaign name to the Harris campaign and accessed $96 million of funds, which violates FEC regulations. Harris campaign spokesperson denies the claims, stating they are baseless and meant to distract from the upcoming election. Citizens United and 16 state GOP parties are behind the complaint. The FEC has not commented on the matter, but a Republican FEC chair has indicated that Harris may not have access to the funds according to regulations. The Trump campaign also filed a similar complaint. The complaint is unlikely to be resolved before the November elections due to ongoing FEC reviews from the 2016 election. Despite the controversy, the Harris campaign reported raising $100 million in just one day after Biden announced he was withdrawing from the race. Campaign records will be publicly available in mid-October when quarterly reports are due to the FEC. This dispute adds to the contentious atmosphere surrounding the upcoming election, with both parties gearing up for a heated battle.
