As of 5 p.m., the campaign “Help Christine Blasey Ford,” one of at least two set up on her behalf, had raised more than $378,000 total when the hearing began, according to a spokeswoman for the crowdfunding website.
The GoFundMe campaigns came up after Rachel Mitchell, a prosecutor who questioned Dr. Blasey asked who had paid for a polygraph examination Dr. Blasey took as part of her sexual assault accusation against Judge Brett M. Kavanaugh.
Dr. Blasey’s lawyers said that her legal team had paid for the polygraph “as is routine,” and they were both working pro bono.
