Kamala Harris’ vice presidential pick was leaked on Friday due to an incompetent staffer not understanding how to schedule posts on social media.
In a move that will no doubt rankle the Harris campaign, a video promoting Josh Shapiro as the choice was pushed out by the X account owned by Philadelphia Mayor Cherelle Parker. It was immediately apparent that the post was meant to be scheduled for early next week when Harris is set to join Parker and others in the city to officially announce the VP pick.
Note: It is very likely the post gets deleted at some point once the mistake is realized. I’m embedding it so the text will still be visible even if it is.
A local reporter from Philadelphia confirmed that this is what it looks like.
I’m hearing there’s a “firestorm” right now.
I guess that’s an understatement.
