Barack Obama and Joe Biden reunited Tuesday for their first joint appearances of the 2020 presidential campaign, hosting virtual fundraisers that the Biden campaign said brought in $11 million.
About $7.6 million was raised at an event with 175,000 grassroots donors. A smaller, more expensive event raised about $3.4 million, the campaign said.
