1. Do you think that this will effect the outcome of the current election?

I don't think this will effect the current election seeing how he is the frontrunner.

2. Why do you think that they need so much money for the election?

The presidential candidates need the money because all they do is travel around the country and talk.

  • Good job replying Dylan! Your summary and personal thoughts are a bit brief. Also, be sure to capitalize key words in your title.

  • I don't think that it will effect the current election because he is still in the lead for the democrats. They need a lot of money to plan rallies and talk about what he is going to do when he is president and he needs a lot of money to travel to the rallies so that is why he needs a lot of money.

    • I agree with your statement in you saying that this won't effect the current election becasue he is a front runner and likely to become the democratic presidential candidate. And They need a lot of money to plan rallies and talk about what he is going to do when he is president.

  • I don't think that this will have an impact on the election because money raised doesn't really matter this late into the election especially when your're already a millionaire. I think that they need money to go around the country and talk, but I think they also use it as a measure of support.

    • I agree with your statment that this won't have a impact becasue that this will have an impact on the election because money raised doesn't really matter this late into the election especially when your're already a millionaire. Also Biden is a frontrunnerin the election. 

  • I agree, that it will not change the effect of the election but it would most likely help him continue to have success. I think so they can pay for transportation and pay for the places that they speak at, also caimpaging cost quite a bit so it would help him a lot.

    • I agree that this will not change the outcome of the current election becasue he is a front runner and likely to become the democratic presidential candidate. And as you said campaigning cost lots of money with travel and advertisements.

  • I do believe this could affect the current election but knowing that he is the frontrunner for the democrats I don't believe this will affect him.

    The presidential candidates need the money for the election because they travel around the country debating things in order to become the next president. 

    • I agree with your statement in saying it might but more possibly won't effect the currenthe is a front runner and likely to become the democratic presidential candidate.  You are also right in your thinking of where the money goes they use it for travel.

  • I think this could have a serious impact if Biden contiues to recieve significantly less money becuase the nominies are pretty much always the ones who raise the most money. I think the need such a large amount on money.
