Govtrack Removes 2019 Ranking Of Kamala Harris As 'Most Liberal'

Vice President USA Kamala Harris poses for a picture

GovTrack, an organization known for tracking congressional voting records, recently confirmed that it had removed a web page from 2019 that ranked Kamala Harris as the 'most liberal' U.S. senator. This ranking had placed Harris ahead of prominent senators like Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren at the time.

The self-described 'government transparency website' had previously scored Harris as the 'most liberal compared to all senators' in 2019. The web page containing this ranking, which garnered significant media attention during the 2020 election, has since been deactivated, now showing a 'Page Not Found' message.

Page deletion between July 10 and July 23, coinciding with Biden's endorsement of Harris.

According to the Internet Archive, the page in question was deleted sometime between July 10 and July 23. Some sources indicate that the page was still accessible as of July 22, raising questions about the timing of its removal.

Notably, President Biden announced his decision to suspend his campaign and endorse Kamala Harris as the Democratic nominee on July 21. Following this, Harris herself declared in the early hours of July 23 that she had secured enough delegates to secure the nomination at the upcoming Democratic National Convention.
