I'm trying to find something that shows how poor a candidate Kamala Harris was in 2020. But the ultimate answer tends to be lost. Here's one:
The last time Kamala Harris ran a campaign for the presidency, she dropped out of the contest before a single vote was cast.
After launching her bid in Oakland, California, in front of a crowd of 20,000 supporters in January 2019, she campaigned for 310 days before dropping out of the contest. At the time she left the race, she was polling at 4 percent or lower in polling aggregates — a complete flop.
It was a stunning result: Harris had been seen as a rising star for most of her years campaigning for and legislating in the Senate, questioning Trump administration officials, and was viewed as the possible future of the Democratic Party as she prepared for a presidential bid. She didn’t get close to the nomination in 2020.
Another one gives three causes that stood out.
- Harris and her team were uncertain over which ideological path to take, especially as the Democratic Party shifted hard to the political left.
- Her campaign operation was chaotic and advisers were often divided, changing the campaign’s direction repeatedly.
- The Democratic base wasn’t convinced by her arguments about electability — and she missed her moment once real-world factors like fundraising, media coverage, and polling caught up.
But the major reason is that she is a really BAD candidate. I heard she didn't even have enough votes to carry California, her home state.
OK, Here's Tulsi Gabbard shredding Harris on her record:
