Where is Kamala Harris?
Her appointment as America’s first female Vice President made headlines around the world but a year on from the election, many are asking; where is Kamala Harris?
Rapper Ye – formerly known as Kanye West – recently highlighted the rarely seen VP in a recent interview, and quipped: “They got 94 of the Black female vote you would have thought Drake was running.”
The Los Angeles Times seeks to answer what Harris is doing with her time by explaining it’s not unusual for vice presidents to fade a little into the background after the hype of an election. The article explains Kamala Harris is spending less time with President Biden now Covid restrictions have been eased because they are “spreading their wings, reaching out to more people and places”. They add she gets fewer media coverage when she isn’t doing public events with the president and that may explain why people say they haven’t seen her.
Another story, from the Times, suggests President Biden and VP Harris are spending less time together following a ‘White House rift’. Kamala Harris is said to be eyeing the presidency but her approval rating has dropped to 49 per cent, the article adds.
USA Today believes progressives have been left disappointed by Kamala Harris. They say activists are frustrated that change has come slowly to their causes, many of which Harris oversees. “Much of the exasperation is trained squarely at President Joe Biden’s leadership. But some frustration spills over to Harris.”
Kamala Harris has a 28 percent approval rating. This is what happens when California politics goes national.

And… Vice President Kamala Harris – who hasn’t done a major network broadcast interview in 5 months and has yet to hold one press conference as VP, currently sits at *28 percent* approval in this poll. So much for Plan B… https://t.co/eQi0sQcGVe
