Analyzing the Factors Behind Kamala Harris' Election Defeat

TL;DR Summary
Kamala Harris lost the 2024 election due to a failure to connect with progressive and working-class voters, inadequate economic proposals, and a lack of focus on key issues like climate change and foreign policy. Her campaign was criticized for not addressing economic inequality, inflation, and ongoing wars, which alienated various voter groups, including Black, Latino, and young voters. Harris's inability to present a bold plan for economic reform and her alignment with unpopular policies contributed to her defeat.
