Harris supporters blame Biden for vice president's election defeat to Trump

Kamala Harris faced a significant defeat in the recent election, leading some of her supporters to blame President Joe Biden for not stepping aside earlier. They argue that his decision to run for reelection until July contributed to the party's loss. Biden's age and concerns about his effectiveness were major issues for voters. Polls indicated that a large majority believed he was too old to serve another term. His late exit from the race left Harris with little time to establish her own identity separate from Biden. Despite Harris generating enthusiasm among some voters, she struggled to differentiate her campaign from Biden's. Many Democrats feel that earlier leadership changes could have allowed for a more competitive primary and better addressed voter concerns.
