Vice President Kamala Harris Brings Message of Hope to Glencoe Fundraiser
Glencoe, IL – Vice President Kamala Harris brought a message of hope to a fundraiser in Glencoe, where she spoke to a crowd of about 100 people about the momentum behind the Democratic ticket in the upcoming November election.
Harris, speaking under a large tent in the yard of a Spanish villa-style lakefront mansion, emphasized that “we are winning” and that momentum is on the side of the Democratic party. Despite some polls showing President Joe Biden trailing in key swing states, Harris remained optimistic about the campaign’s prospects.
The Vice President highlighted the accomplishments of the Biden administration, including investments in infrastructure, job creation, scientific research, and clean energy initiatives. She also spoke about the importance of having a president who leads with empathy, contrasting it with the “chaos” of former President Donald Trump’s administration.
However, Harris also acknowledged the challenges facing the nation, including the need for major changes in the political and economic systems. She warned that democracy is fragile and emphasized the importance of fighting to protect it.
Prior to the Glencoe fundraiser, Harris participated in an event at the Milwaukee children’s science museum Discovery World as part of her Economic Opportunity Tour. She addressed racial disparities in economic empowerment and criticized the notion of the ‘bootstrap theory’ as being unrealistic for many communities.
Overall, Harris’s message of hope and optimism resonated with the audience in Glencoe, as she urged supporters to continue fighting for the promise of America. With the November election approaching, the Vice President’s words serve as a rallying cry for the Democratic ticket as they seek to secure victory.
