Vice President Kamala Harris’s team swiftly responded to former President Donald Trump’s controversial comment suggesting that Christians “don’t have to vote again” if he gets elected. Harris’s spokesperson called Trump’s statement “deeply troubling,” emphasizing the importance of every vote in a democracy.
Harris’s camp reiterated that voting is a fundamental right and a cornerstone of American democracy. They stressed that such rhetoric undermines the democratic process and could disenfranchise millions of voters. The spokesperson added, “No leader should ever discourage citizens from exercising their right to vote.”
The response also highlighted the Biden-Harris administration’s commitment to protecting voting rights and ensuring free and fair elections. They urged all eligible voters to participate in every election, underscoring the power of each vote in shaping the nation’s future.
