The Trump campaign accused Vice President Kamala Harris on Tuesday of engaging in “largest campaign finance violation in American history” in a complaint to the Federal Election Commission over her attempt to use political donations made to President Biden.
“Kamala Harris is seeking to perpetrate a $91.5 million dollar heist of Joe Biden’s leftover campaign cash — a brazen money grab that would constitute the single largest excessive contribution and biggest violation in the history of the Federal Election Campaign Act of 1971,” Trump campaign general counsel David Warrington wrote in a grievance to the FEC.
The complaint was filed against Harris, Biden, the 81-year-old president’s principal campaign committee – renamed Harris for President on Sunday – and the committee’s treasurer.
It further describes the effort to repurpose the $91.5 million left in Biden’s campaign account to Harris as “fraudulent” and a “mockery of our campaign finance laws.”
Warrington argues that there is “no provision in federal campaign finance law for Kamala Harris to take over Joe Biden’s candidacy” and assume “control of his campaign” by simply amending forms on file with FEC.
