Prominent pollster Nate Silver said he has sympathy for Kamala Harris because President Joe Biden didn’t offer a lot of help during the campaign. 

“He gave her tough assignments — the border, perhaps Democrats’ worst issue, and voting rights, an issue on which the White House probably knew it wouldn’t make any progress,” Silver said on Friday.

“He blew up the debate calendar, leaving nothing scheduled after Sept. 11 even though this was one of Harris’s best formats,” he continued. “Even up to the bitter end, Biden was stepping on her message.”

Biden campaigned for Harris when she was on the campaign trail and had some moments that backfired, such as calling Trump supporters “garbage.”

Silver referred to Harris as a “replacement-level politician,” according to The Hill.

“I think people confuse their sympathy for Harris’s position for her having been a good candidate,” Silver said, referencing her poor performance on Election Day.
