From the New York Post: CNN anchor Jake Tapper is going viral for his stunned reaction early Wednesday when told that Vice President Kamala Harris had failed to outperform President Biden’s 2020 results in a single state.
Tapper asked CNN chief national correspondent John King to pull up a graphic showing in which states Harris had gotten at least 3% more votes than Biden had in the last election — just to be presented with a gray map reflecting her failure even in that.
“Holy smokes!” Tapper gasped. “Literally nothing?”
“Literally nothing,” King confirmed.
The slide, which would have lit up states where Harris outperformed Biden by 3% or more, was instead completely gray.
“Literally not one county?” Tapper asked again, still sounding shocked in the footage.
Based on the voter tallies reported so far, Harris had an extremely poor performance in the state of New York, getting nearly 1 million fewer votes in that one state than Joe Biden did in 2020.
In the 2020 presidential election, Biden received over 5.2 million votes in New York. In Tuesday’s election, Harris only received just over 4.3 million votes in New York.
Trump picked up an additional 200,000 New York votes on Tuesday over what he received in 2020. That leaves over 700,000 New York voters who appear to have simply sat out the election.
