Politico is reporting that Republicans are "starting to panic" because of a big fundraising gap they see emerging with their Democratic rivals.
As Politico notes, Republicans have been making the case to donors in recent weeks that they need tens of millions dollars more to remain competitive with Democrats in this fall's election, especially after the rise of Vice President Kamala Harris to the top of the Democratic ticket led to a surge in enthusiasm and donations from Democratic voters and big-name donors.
