Kamala Harris says ‘Wisconsin is part of my story’ in awkward Milwaukee event

R&I NV

Vice presidential hopeful Kamala Harris had an awkward moment during a campaign event in Wisconsin, describing the state as “part of her story,” while avoiding reporters.

…Harris had already given remarks on the “dignity of work,” a theme of the campaign, and Barnes figured the vice presidential hopeful would be answering questions as reporters bemoan a lack of access to Harris and her running mate, presidential nominee Joe Biden.

“We are very honored, proud and lucky to have Senator, soon-to-be Vice President, Harris with us today, and I will pass it back over to you. I know you want to take some questions before you get out of here,” Barnes said before reaching over and offering the microphone to Harris.

Before Harris could take it from Barnes, a member of Harris’ staff could be heard saying, “Oh, I think we’re all set.”

“Thank you all, we’re all set. Thank you,” another voice said as shuffling began.

Barnes then said into the microphone, “Oh, all right.”

After it became clear that Harris wouldn’t be answering questions, reporters began shouting out queries for the vice presidential hopeful.
