At Kamala Harris’s first rally since announcing Minnesota governor Tim Walz as her running mate, the room at Temple University in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, was ebullient, filled with thousands of voters cheering and waving Harris-Walz signs.
“I feel ecstatic,” said Joseph Alston, a 69-year-old West Norriton Democratic committee member. Last week, he campaigned for Harris by knocking on doors and handing out flyers in the nearby King of Prussia area. People who he spoke to said that they were committed to vote against Donald Trump. “They don’t want him anywhere near the White House,” Alston said.
