Report: Anonymous Campaign Aide Claims Kamala Harris Flip-Flopped, No Longer Wants to Ban Fracking

Vice President Kamala Harris allegedly flip-flopped on her previous support of banning fracking, a process that fuels American energy independence and boosts Pennsylvania’s economy.

Pennsylvania is a significant state in the Democrat’s Blue Wall strategy to prevent former President Donald Trump from completing the greatest political comeback in American political history. Whoever wins the Keystone State wins the presidential election, many political experts predict.

The alleged rejection of Harris’s policy position was published in Politico via an anonymous “campaign spokesperson” from the “Harris campaign.”

On Monday, Politico appeared to change its headline that told its readers about Harris flip-flopping on the issue:

Despite Politico’s anonymous source, Harris said multiple times in public that she opposes fracking. “There’s no question, I’m in favor of banning fracking,” she said in 2019.

The report comes as Democrats are sensitive about Harris’s political capital in the Keystone State.

“Everything I’ve always heard is she doesn’t have that many relationships in Pennsylvania, and she hasn’t established any kind of identity here,” a Democrat strategist based in Pennsylvania told the Hill on Sunday. “Obviously, it’s a very big difference with Joe Biden.”
