Kamala Harris ripped her opponent Donald Trump at a press gaggle in Detroit, Michigan, saying the Republican nominee “lost” in 2020.
Democratic presidential candidate Vice President Harris was asked at the top of a press gaggle of reporters in Detroit, Michigan, “Simply, how are you feeling and have you submitted your ballot?”
Harris, 48 hours from Election Day, admitted that “everyone’s a little tired” and “sleep-deprived.”
“I am feeling great, I am looking forward to these next 48 hours to continue to talk with the voters and talk about the stakes and talk about the future of our country,” Harris said, “Which I think is bright when we’re working with the same spirit of building community, building coalitions and building the strength of our economy and our country. I have, I actually just filled out my mail-in ballot, so I have voted.”
Harris, a former San Francisco district attorney, California attorney general and U.S. senator before she was elected vice president in 2020, declined to answer about how she voted on Proposition 36. The California ballot measure would reverse criminal justice reforms made in her home state in recent years.

“I’m not going to talk about the vote on that because honestly it’s the Sunday before the election, and I don’t intend to create an endorsement one way or another around it,” Harris said. “But I did vote.”
The initiative, if passed, would make the crime of shoplifting a felony for repeat offenders and increase penalties for some drug charges, including those involving the synthetic opioid fentanyl. It also would give judges the authority to order people with multiple drug charges to get treatment.
Harris also addressed election integrity concerns, telling reporters former President Trump “lost” in 2020.

“So here we are on the Sunday before the election, and I would ask in particular people who have not yet voted to not fall for his tactic, which I think includes suggesting to people that if they vote, their vote won’t matter,” Harris said. ‘Suggesting to people that somehow the integrity of our voting system is not intact, so that they don’t vote. And again, I think that it is a tactic.”
