Washington Examiner investigations editor Sarah Bedford suggested that Vice President Kamala Harris is focused on the wrong voter base as her election approaches.
Election Day is less than a month away. Harris is the first Democratic presidential candidate not to receive the Teamsters endorsement in the 21st century, which Bedford claimed could be a “working-class voter problem.”
“I think for Kamala Harris, this working-class voter problem is particularly acute because she’s not polling well in the Sun Belt states, in Georgia, Arizona, for example, in North Carolina it’s not looking great for her,” Bedford said on Fox Business’s The Evening Edit. “So her really only path to victory is through those so-called ‘blue wall’ states of Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin, where there’s a very high concentration of white working-class voters who aren’t buying what Kamala Harris is selling. And to look at her campaign, you wouldn’t think they’ve registered that problem the way she’s conducting outreach primarily to, you know, liberal-base voters.”

Washington Examiner senior columnist Salena Zito similarly predicted that former President Donald Trump will win Pennsylvania in November because the working class there has “migrated over to the Republican Party.”
Pennsylvania has largely voted for Democratic presidential candidates in recent cycles, including in 2020, but it flipped for Trump during his 2016 bid. The state has 19 electoral votes and is seen as a crucial part of a White House victory.
