House Democrats Target FEC Chairman For Raising Questions About Kamala Harris Getting Biden’s War Chest
House Democrats are now targeting the chairman of the Federal Election Commission (FEC) for raising questions about Biden giving donor funds to Kamala Harris.
Biden dropped out of the 2024 race on Sunday and endorsed Kamala Harris.
Trump-appointed FEC Chair Sean Cooksey on Sunday said Kamala Harris may not be entitled to Biden’s war chest in a post on X.
11 C.F.R. § 110.1(b)(3):
“If the candidate is not a candidate in the general election, all contributions made for the general election shall be either returned or refunded to the contributors or redesignated …, or reattributed …, as appropriate.”

Cooksey called the process “really complicated” and suggested it would be resolved in the courts in an interview with NPR.
