As the 2024 U.S. election is heating up with the expectation that President Joe Biden will formally announce his plans to seek reelection, critics are taking a closer look at Kamala Harris as his running mate.
A California native, Harris is the first woman, the first Black American, and the first South Asian American to be elected vice president.
But a recent Boston Globe opinion piece made the case that choosing a new running mate may have a potential political upside for Democrats.
The op/ed points to Harris’ low approval ratings and having drawn headlines mostly for “disarray and dysfunction among her staff” as examples of how Harris could weigh down Biden at the polls.
“And in the arena of public policy and legislation, her achievements have been close to nonexistent,” the op/ed reads.
