Police are investigating what appears to be gunfire damage overnight at a Democratic Party-coordinated campaign office for Vice President Kamala Harris.

The incident occurred just a few days before Harris is scheduled to visit Arizona as she campaigns for president.

“We can confirm that on 9/23/24, what appears to be damage from gunfire at … a DNC Campaign Office, was discovered,” the Tempe Police Department said in a statement to NBC News on Tuesday.

The office is shared by staff for the Arizona Democratic Party, the Harris campaign, and Senate and House campaigns, to boost turnout for the party in November.

    I don’t think everyone working there expected to be shot at. I don’t think it would deter me, being so awesome and whatnot, but I wouldn’t expect everyone to react that way.

      I guess if I were going to a place like that every day in a state where it’s going to be hotly contested in an election year full of stochastic terrorism against the left, I would absolutely be ready for something like this.

        No.

        No you would not, you may have made contingencies in case it happened, but you would absolutely be affected by it and have your day disrupted.

        I’m surprised to see this getting down voted. The Trump cultists are a powder keg, I wouldn’t feel safe in any building associated with Democrats or the Harris campaign personally. It’s not really a surprise they are shooting out windows, these are pissed off people with guns who believe a bunch of crazy shit. If you’re working in a building like this and you didn’t consider this possibility then you are naive to the reality of what you’re up against.

          They are uncivilized savages and should be handled as such.
