Former Vice President Kamala Harris has extended her book tour into 2026, adding stops in key primary states such as Wisconsin and South Carolina, a move that has intensified assumptions she is preparing another presidential bid. At a recent stop covered by The Daily Wire, many supporters struggled to identify a specific signature accomplishment from her vice presidency, often citing broader themes or disputed policy outcomes instead.
Kamala Harris, who served as vice president under President Joe Biden and ran unsuccessfully for president in 2024, has announced an extension of her book tour into 2026, according to The Daily Wire. The outlet reports that the updated itinerary includes appearances in Wisconsin and South Carolina, both influential states in the presidential primary process, which many observers interpret as groundwork for a potential 2028 campaign.
Reporters from The Daily Wire visited an earlier stop on Harris’s tour, where the line to enter wrapped around the building and the event was sold out. The crowd was described as overwhelmingly female, with the outlet estimating roughly ten women for every man in attendance.
During man-on-the-street interviews outside the event, Daily Wire journalists posed a straightforward question to attendees: What was Harris’s biggest accomplishment as vice president?
One supporter, wearing a “Childless Dog Ladies For Kamala” shirt, replied that she was “drawing a blank,” according to the outlet’s account. While many interviewees appeared unsure at first, the most common answer after expressions of uncertainty was that Harris brought “joy and hope to the American people.”
Another supporter pointed to immigration policy, saying, “She really made a difference at the borders. She stopped people from coming into the country illegally.” The Daily Wire contrasted that perception with data from the conservative Heritage Foundation, which estimates that more than 10 million people crossed the U.S. border illegally during the Biden-Harris administration, calling the supporter’s claim into question.
Attendees also reflected on Harris’s 2024 election loss. Several blamed sexism, with one person saying, “America just isn’t ready for a female president,” according to the Daily Wire video interviews. Another attendee claimed, “I think there was cheating,” without offering specific evidence.
Harris, by contrast, has publicly attributed her defeat to the brevity of her 2024 campaign, which she has said lasted 107 days. As summarized by The Daily Wire, she argues in her memoir that the compressed timeline left her without enough opportunity to connect with voters—a theme she continues to emphasize while returning to the national stage on her extended book tour.
