Harris Could Help Biden with Women, Young Voters

August 13, 2020 · 6:44 am ET · Leave a Comment

Nearly nine out of 10 Democrats approve of Sen. Kamala Harris as their party’s vice presidential nominee, and she is more popular than presidential candidate Joe Biden among women, young voters and some Republicans, according to a Reuters/Ipsos poll.

The survey also found that 60% of Americans, including 87% of Democrats and 37% of Republicans, considered the selection of Harris – the first Black woman and Asian American nominated for vice presidency – to be a “major milestone” for the United States.
