Vice President Kamala Harris tapped donors in her political home base of San Francisco after a swing-state tour introducing running mate Tim Walz, raising more than $12 million at an event attended by top California Democrats, her campaign said.

Guests at the Sunday afternoon fundraiser included billionaire investor Tom Steyer, San Francisco Giants CEO Larry Baer and Hollywood mogul Jeffrey Katzenberg. Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Governor Gavin Newsom also were among the attendees.
