More Than 70% Of Dem Voters Don’t Know Kamala’s Positions

The article discusses a recent poll ​conducted by Media Research Center, which reveals that over 70% of Democrat‌ voters‌ are unaware of Kamala Harris’s policy positions. The survey ⁣included 1,200 registered Democrats and independents who had⁢ voted for Joe Biden ⁤in the 2020 election. It highlighted a significant knowledge gap regarding Harris’s political ⁣stances, with percentages of respondents expressing unfamiliarity ranging from ‍71% to 86% on various issues.

Specific findings ‍from the poll indicated that many ⁤respondents were unaware of notable aspects of Harris’s​ record, ⁢including her ‌support⁢ for a fund ⁣that ‌bailed out violent protesters ‍during the 2020 riots (78% unaware), her designation as the “most liberal U.S. senator” in 2019 (75%‌ unaware), ‌and her positions on decriminalizing illegal immigration and border issues (74% and 72% unaware,⁢ respectively).​ The poll suggests ⁣that these⁢ knowledge‍ gaps⁤ may be​ a result of the⁤ coverage—or lack thereof—by mainstream media outlets like ⁢ABC, ⁣CBS, NBC, CNN, and MSNBC.

The article criticizes ​the media for failing to adequately disclose Harris’s policy history ⁢while also ⁣pointing out that she has not released official proposals as a nominee, ‌making it difficult for ⁤voters‍ to understand her platform. It concludes with a call for accountability, emphasizing that while voters should be informed, ‌the media has⁢ a responsibility to provide honest⁣ and comprehensive coverage of candidates and⁤ their positions.

Brianna Lyman, the author, ‍is noted as⁣ an elections‍ correspondent for‍ The Federalist, and ⁢she encourages discussions surrounding transparency and the duty of the media ‌to inform the public⁢ about political candidates.

Left-wing corporate media’s non-stop defensive coverage of Democrat presidential nominee Kamala Harris is working, with a new poll from Media Research Center finding more than 70 percent of Democrats are unaware of what Harris’ policy positions are.

Media Research Center surveyed 1,200 “registered Democrats and Independents who voted for Joe Biden in 2020” and found that on 10 “different aspects of Harris’s public record … between 71% and 86% of these Democrats and Independents said they either had not heard of Harris’s position or were unsure.”

Data shows that when it comes to the key issues like immigration and crime, most Democrats and Independent-Biden supporters have been kept in the dark on Harris’ most communist-like stances. For example, 78% of voters surveyed were unaware that Harris promoted a fund that led to violent protesters being bailed out of jail during the 2020 riots. Seventy-five percent of those polled were unaware that Harris was once named “the most liberal U.S. senator in 2019.”

Seventy-four percent of those surveyed had no idea that Harris wanted to decriminalize illegally entering the country, while 72 percent were unaware that Harris “never visited a conflict zone on the border as Border Czar.”

Unsurprisingly, those surveyed told Media Research Center they get their news from ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, and MSNBC.

“This suggests that the knowledge gaps found by our poll reveal a failure of these outlets to report on radical positions once (and perhaps currently) supported by the now-Democratic nominee for President,” according to Media Research Center.

Harris, as my colleague Ben Weingarten explains, “has flip-flopped on banning fracking, ‘decriminalizing’ illegal immigration, and providing universal government health care. She seeks to unburden herself from what has been. …”

Further analysis by the Media Research Center found that from July 21 to August 10, “eight of these ten issues received ZERO attention” from ABC, CBS, and NBC evening news, while the remaining two issues “received only minor coverage.”

Maybe we could cut some of these voters a little slack for not knowing Harris’ radical positions: she has yet to release any official proposals, clearly trying to memory-hole her entire career and devise a new (temporary) persona as a moderate. Thus far, however, she has talked of having the government control “politically inconvenient prices,” as my colleague David Harsanyi writes, and giving first-time home buyers $25,000.

That said, these voters deserve repudiation if they ultimately do vote for Harris without having any clue what her policy positions are.

But it’s the left-wing corporate media who deserve no mercy. Rather than having wall-to-wall coverage of the fact that the sitting vice president released no policy proposals and yet ascended to become the party’s nominee (via a coup, to be sure), the left-wing government mouthpieces — I mean, journalists — have ignored such reality.

In fact, during a recent episode of The New York Times’ “The Daily” podcast, politics reporter Astead Herndon laughed when asked what Harris’ administration might look like.

“We don’t know what type of president she would be,” he said. “Frankly, if you ask any Democrat, they would say that’s tomorrow’s problem, and as long as she wins the election and stops Donald Trump from winning another term, they don’t care.”

But a functioning media should care.

Yet, they refuse to put public pressure on Harris to sit down for an interview to explain how she’s going to fix the problems that her administration created. It’s not a heavy lift for them either: the left-wing corporate media sprung into action, providing wall-to-wall coverage of President Joe Biden’ cognitive decline when his decline became politically disadvantageous and necessitated the media’s help strong-arming him out of his nomination.
