Summary

Kamala Harris’s political skills have transformed a potentially disastrous 2024 presidential election into a competitive race.

Despite initial skepticism and a challenging campaign, Harris has improved her public image and closed the gap with Trump on key issues. Since Biden stepped aside in July and endorsed her, she has shifted from an unpopular vice president to a viable candidate, even matching Trump in polls on economic issues.

Her leadership has given Democrats a chance to prevent a Trump landslide and halt the rise of American authoritarianism.

    Look at Pennsylvania weed legalization is basically assured.

    This is primarily because every bordering state has recreational and they’re losing tons of tax revenue.

    But this did get me to check on my state election results and I found a tiny silver lining in that Democrats won both the state senate and representative races.
