    My question is if someone other than Harris wins the nomination, can Harris give over the elections funds? Were those funds donated to the Dems or to Biden/Harris specifically? Would there be legal donation issues to give them to someone else?

      I’m a random person but my understanding was that legally the funds belong to the Biden/Harris campaign, now owned by Harris. I think moving that money between campaign funds is not permitted. Maybe some unprecedented swap where Harris remains VP would work.

      I think the money can then be added into a PAC like “The Biden/Harris PAC For A Better Tomorrow” or some shit. Then, that PAC can be used to fund another candidate. Not 100% sure on it, but that’s my mildly educated guess.
