Vice PresidentĀ Kamala Harrisā campaign on Sunday is launching āRepublicans for Harrisā as she looks to win over Republican voters put off byĀ Donald Trumpās candidacy.
The program will be a ācampaign within a campaign,ā according to Harrisā team, using well-known Republicans to activate their networks, with a particular emphasis on primary voters who backed former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley. The program will kick off with events this week in Arizona, North Carolina and Pennsylvania. Republicans backing Harris will also appear at rallies with the vice president and her soon-to-be-named running mate this coming week, the campaign said.
The Harris campaign shared the details of the program first with The Associated Press before the official announcement.
As a white guy, Harris is the first candidate Iāve been excited to vote for in my adult life.
I think itās important to show that not every white guy is a misogynistic racist. Especially in todayās political environment.
