Kamala changing her stance to against fracking will help get votes
And I’m asking how. What person voting for President is making being against fracking the reason for their vote? Who is the single issue voter against fracking?
Yeah, 58% of Pennsylvania voters don’t like fracking, but who is going to change their vote because of this shift, either to Trump or to third party?

The former? No one. But to a third party like Stein, that’s a lot more plausible. We’re already seeing this elsewhere (e.g. with Muslim voters endorsing Stein due to Harris not being strong enough on protecting Gaza) so worrying about a single issue vote can make sense here.
Ultimately though I agree with you - Harris is likely to gain more from the moderate Republican never trumper pro fracking votes than she’ll lose from the single issue anti-fracking votes.
