DNC Autopsy: Biden’s Israel Stance Cost Harris Votes
Senior Democrats’ internal review of the 2024 election revealed that the Biden administration’s response to the Israel-Hamas war was a significant detriment to the party, particularly impacting Vice President Kamala Harris’s support among younger and progressive voters. Party officials acknowledged this wariness in discussions, noting it contributed to Harris’s electoral defeat. This internal assessment suggests a need for a stronger stance on Israel to appeal to disaffected progressives and crucial swing state voters, especially within the Arab American community.
