US Vice President Kamala Harris is facing severe criticism for her continued fundraising efforts following a significant US Presidential election loss to US President- elect Donald Trump, reported New York Post.

In spite of raising more than $1.5 billion during her Presidential campaign, reports indicate that Kamala Harris ended up with approximately $20 million in debt. New York Post reported that in the weeks after the election, her campaign has sent numerous emails urging supporters to contribute while emphasizing the need to counter Donald Trump's administration and its nominees.

Numerous critics which included Democratic strategists put forward an argument that these persistent appeals are alienating donors and raising questions about the campaign's financial management, asserted New York Post.

New York Post also noted that some of Kamala Harris's expenditures have come under scrutiny which eventually includes large payments to media consultants and high-profile figures like Oprah Winfrey. Democratic insiders suggest that a thorough audit of Kamala Harris's campaign finances is necessary to understand the spending decisions made during the campaign.

As the Democratic National Committee prepares for a leadership transition, the incoming chair will need to address these financial concerns and the implications of Kamala Harris's fundraising tactics on donor relationships.
