President Joe Biden has successfully raised $28 million in preparation for a high-profile fundraiser, featuring a host of Hollywood celebrities. The event, which will take place in Los Angeles, is part of Biden's strategy to use star power to secure a second term in the White House. The fundraiser will be attended by former President Barack Obama, George Clooney, Julia Roberts and other notables. The event is also a strategic move to maintain a financial advantage over former President Donald Trump, who has seen a significant increase in his fundraising since receiving the Republican nomination.
The fundraiser will be moderated by late-night host Jimmy Kimmel and will include celebrity appearances from Jason Bateman, Jack Black, Kathryn Hahn and Sheryl Lee Ralph. Tickets for the event ranged from $250 to $500,000, with exclusive privileges for those purchasing tickets in the higher tiers. These privileges include front-row seats, a photo with Biden and Obama, and attendance at a special reception with the two presidents.
The Biden campaign has also run a contest for small-dollar donors to win a chance to attend the fundraiser and meet high-profile attendees. Additionally, grassroots supporters had the opportunity to virtually tune into the event with a donation of $20 or more. These combined efforts have made this event the largest Democratic fundraiser in history.
The event follows a similar high-dollar fundraiser with Biden, Obama and former President Bill Clinton in New York City that raised more than $26 million. Biden is also scheduled to appear at a fundraiser with Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton in Virginia.
The Biden campaign hopes the event will not only raise significant funds, but also show strong support from the entertainment industry. The campaign has already enlisted A-list celebrities like Robert De Niro and Jane Fonda to help get its message across. Despite the divisive political landscape, Biden's advisers plan to roll out more celebrity endorsements and engagement as the election nears.
Los Angeles fundraising is crucial for the Biden campaign, especially as Trump appears to be closing the financial gap. While Biden has led in fundraising for most of the year, Trump saw a surge in donations after clinching the Republican nomination, even surpassing Biden in April.
