The National Committee of the Democratic Party of the USA published a report analyzing the reasons for the defeat of then-Vice President Kamala Harris in the 2024 elections.
⠀
In the November 2024 presidential election, Harris lost to Republican candidate Donald Trump.
⠀
The document claims that former President Joe Biden’s campaign headquarters failed to create the conditions for Harris’ success.
⠀
“For three and a half years, the White House did not provide Harris with effective support to strengthen her position until the moment the candidate changed,” the 200-page report compiled by Democratic consultant Paul Rivera says.
⠀
The author of the report claims that the Democrats were unable to clearly explain to voters why Trump should not be re-elected as president. Instead of making arguments in favor of Harris’ election, her staff relied too much on the thesis that Trump’s candidacy was simply “unacceptable.”
⠀
The report caused sharp controversy and was sharply criticized within the party. Party officials initially refused to release the text, but it was eventually published with the following disclaimer: “This document reflects solely the views of the author, not the National Committee of the Democratic Party.”
