Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign on Sunday is launching “Republicans for Harris” as she looks to win over Republican voters put off by Donald Trump’s candidacy.

The program will be a “campaign within a campaign,” according to Harris’ team, using well-known Republicans to activate their networks, with a particular emphasis on primary voters who backed former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley. The program will kick off with events this week in Arizona, North Carolina and Pennsylvania. Republicans backing Harris will also appear at rallies with the vice president and her soon-to-be-named running mate this coming week, the campaign said.

The Harris campaign shared the details of the program first with The Associated Press before the official announcement.

    Good. This is some bipartisanship I can appreciate. I hope Mike Pence endorses her, he could give a statement like “y’know, there was this one day they all wanted to hang me…”

      Mike Pence is fucking gross though. Didn’t deserve to be hanged but still.

          Wait… you want them to substantiate a claim that a person doesn’t deserve to be hanged?

          I would expect that is kind of the default view seeing as there is no state in the union where hanging is still a legal punishment.
