Summary
ActBlue, the platform used by Democrats to raise funds online, saw a massive surge in donations following the death of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg on Friday night. In the hours between 9 p.m. ET Friday, when news of Ginsburg's death was widespread, to 9 a.m. ET Saturday, over $30 million was donated through the site. Joe Biden and McConnell's Democratic challenger Amy McGrath, both sent messages to supporters on their fundraising email lists about Justice Ginsburg on Friday night, though neither solicited donations or provided a fundraising link in their emails.On Saturday morning, both campaigns had resumed sending emails to supporters with fundraising links.
