In her new campaign memoir, 107 Days, former Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris admits she was “mortified” while watching her running mate, Tim Walz, struggle during last year’s vice-presidential debate against JD Vance. Harris wrote that she watched as Walz “fumbled” a crucial answer and fell right into Vance’s trap during the debate on October 1.
She also revealed that Walz was not her first choice for the position of vice-president, according to The Guardian. Her preference would have been for her close friend and then transportation secretary, Pete Buttigieg. The vice-presidential debate was held in New York, and it would be a signal of Harris losing the campaign.
