Would you vote for Kamala Harris for President? Kamala Devi Harris (/ˈkɑːmələ/ KAH-mə-lə; born October 20, 1964) is an American attorney and politician who has served as the junior United States Senator from California since 2017. A member of the Democratic Party, she previously served as the 32nd Attorney General of California from 2011 to 2017, and as the 27th District Attorney of San Francisco from 2004 to 2011. On January 21, 2019, she officially announced her campaign to run for the Democratic nomination for President of the United States in the 2020 United States presidential election.

Harris was born in Oakland, California, and is a graduate of Howard University and University of California, Hastings College of the Law. In the 1990s, she worked in the San Francisco District Attorney's Office and the City Attorney of San Francisco's office. In 2004, she was elected District attorney of San Francisco.

Harris was narrowly elected as California's Attorney General in 2010 and was reelected in 2014 by a wide margin. On November 8, 2016, she defeated Loretta Sanchez in the 2016 Senate election to succeed outgoing Senator Barbara Boxer, becoming California's third female U.S. Senator, and the first of Jamaican or Indian ancestry.[1]

Harris has supported Medicare-for-all, legalization of recreational marijuana, sanctuary cities, passing a DREAM Act, and lowering taxes for the working and middle classes while raising taxes on corporations and the wealthiest top 1% of Americans.

Harris formally announced her run for president on January 27, 2019,[2][3][4] where she vowed to fight for the "largest middle class tax cut in a generation" while championing progressive issues.

I wouldn’t vote for any of the democrat idiots especially the left wing ones like Harris!

Then you would love Harris she is way to the right of Reagan politically....

No, as a prosecutor she failed to prosecute a man who illegally foreclosed on homes and fought to keep innocent people in prison after new evidence came to light exonerating them. [cnn.com]

Possibly. It’s just to soon to say for sure. Depends on many things including who’s running against her. I’m thinking there will be several more people throwing hats into the ring.
