Report: Harris Campaign Blocked Media from Speaking with Voters at PA Rally Wendell Husebø 30 Jul 2024
The Harris campaign reportedly prohibited establishment media reporters from speaking with voters outside a rally in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania, on Monday.
Vice President Kamala Harris’s lack of media accessibility suggests she might be concerned about the media interviewing voters about her radical record. It also indicates she might run a similar campaign to President Joe Biden, who seldomly held solo press conferences and rarely sat for live interviews.
GovTrack’s scorecard ranked Harris as the most liberal senator in 2019, further left than socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT). However, GovTrack rescinded that report in July, noting that its conclusion was drawn from a “single calendar year” of data, which is “not sufficient to create a reliable portrait of the activity of legislators.” Furthermore, the New York Times rated Harris as the least electable of ten possible Democrat nominees. More is here on Harris’s radical record.
Steve Peoples from the Associated Press reported the unusual campaign tactic Monday afternoon on X. “Note that the Harris campaign staff here at PA event allowed me to leave the press pen to talk to voters after someone from Delaware headquarters intervened,” Peoples added in a second post.

Harris has yet to sit for a one-on-one interview after becoming the Democrat Party’s de facto nominee, perhaps fearing a confrontation on policy.
