Kamala Harris faces criticism for lack of engagement with women voters in campaign

Kamala Harris' campaign for the presidency has faced criticism for not effectively engaging women voters. Early exit polls suggest her support among women may be weaker than Joe Biden's in 2020, despite expectations of a strong turnout driven by abortion rights. Critics argue that Harris focused too heavily on abortion, neglecting other key issues like education, the economy, and health care. Many women voters feel their broader concerns were overlooked, leading to a lack of enthusiasm for her candidacy. Harris' campaign style has also been questioned, with some describing her as scripted and disconnected. This has contributed to a perception that she has not earned the confidence of women voters, who desire a candidate that addresses their diverse needs and concerns.
