Vice President Kamala Harris has recently faced racist attacks from a Republican group that has likened her to a slave. This shocking comparison stems from the National Federation of Republican Assemblies’ claim that Harris couldn’t run for President due to the outdated and overturned 1857 Dred Scott Supreme Court decision, which stated that slaves were not citizens.

Despite the challenges she faces, including the racist rhetoric from her opponents, Vice President Harris is currently leading in the polls. Her ability to galvanize and excite her base is evident, but as the Obamas have warned, that the upcoming months will be critical for her campaign.
Conclusion
Vice President Kamala Harris continues navigating a complex environment filled with both expected and unexpected support and opposition as the political landscape heats up. The upcoming election will test her ability to not only connect with voters across a wide spectrum, but to actually get them out to vote in significant numbers. Donald Trump has already set the stage to claim voter fraud and manipulation, which we should all expect if he loses the election. Vice President Harris needs to soundly defeat the former president in order to make it much harder for his felonious tricks to have an impact.
