On 4/6/21 at 6:22 AM EDT
In an interview with the
San Francisco Chronicle, Harris said the White House would be as supportive as much as we possibly can amid the California recall election campaign.
The vice president added that the Biden administration was unambiguous in its support for Newsom as she appeared beside the governor at a water treatment facility in the state.
Speaking to reporters on the tour of the Oakland water treatment plant, Harris said: I especially want to thank you, governor. He and I have worked together for a long time. We were elected to our first office, same time back in 2003.

Stacey Abrams Says Warnock, Ossoff Leading Kind of Turnout Democrats Need in Ga. Runoffs
On 12/28/20 at 1:06 PM EST
Democratic activist and organizer Stacey Abrams praised Georgia senatorial candidates Raphael Warnock and Jon Ossoff for increasing voter participation and leading the kind of turnout that Democrats need to win in the traditionally conservative state.
Warnock and Ossoff will face off against Republican Senators Kelly Loeffler and David Perdue in the January 5 runoffs, after none of the contenders secured more than 50 percent in the general election on November 3. Under Georgia s constitution, candidates must garner the majority of votes, not just a plurality, to win their race. The two runoffs have become exceptionally prominent on the national political stage, as they will decide whether Democrats or Republicans control the Senate.
