Harris Vows to Create Bipartisan Advisory Council as DNC Runs Ad Attacking Jill Stein

HeadlineOct 14, 2024

Vice President Kamala Harris is attempting to expand her appeal to disaffected Republicans. During a campaign stop in Scottsdale, Arizona, Harris vowed to create a bipartisan advisory council.

Vice President Kamala Harris: “I have decided also, not only will I have a Republican in my Cabinet, but I’m also going to — I was talking to my team about it. I want to create some structure around the following, which is … creating a bipartisan council of advisers who can then give feedback on policy as we go forward.”

In other campaign news, the Democratic National Committee has released an ad attacking Green Party presidential nominee Jill Stein, claiming a vote for Stein is a vote for Trump. Democrats are planning to run the ad in Wisconsin, Pennsylvania and Michigan. In August, the Council on American-Islamic Relations, CAIR, published a survey that showed Stein is leading Harris among Muslim voters in Arizona, Michigan and Wisconsin. Stein has criticized Harris for refusing to cut off arms sales to Israel.
