Why Isn’t Kamala Harris Giving Interviews?

Politico: “Ever since Biden passed Harris the baton, news organizations have been pushing the vice president’s team for a sit-down interview. According to two people familiar with the campaign’s thinking, there are ongoing discussions about a joint interview with Harris and Walz prior to the convention, which begins on Aug. 19 in Chicago.”

“But on the whole, Harris’ top communications aides are deeply skeptical, as Biden’s inner circle was, that doing big interviews with major TV networks or national newspapers offer much real upside when it comes to reaching swing voters.”

One longtime Harris ally suggested that Harris could hold off on big interviews until after Labor Day:  “There’s really no need. The voters that she needs are at the local level. They’re not reading the national press.”
