Roger Hochschild, former CEO of Discover Financial Services and a major Democratic Party donor, told CNN that there was “palpable enthusiasm” on a call where Vice President Kamala Harris and top campaign aides discussed what needs to be done in the next 100 days until Election Day.
Issues related to reproductive health
One of the questions the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee answered was about reproductive health, according to Hochschild.
She “emphasized how her administration will be focused on freedoms and moving the country forward rather than repression and regression,” he said.
Plans for campaigning in key states
Officials on the call made it clear that spending time in swing states would be a top priority for Kamala and indicated that Biden’s new running mate campaign is quickly figuring out how best to rearrange her schedule and attend upcoming events given her new role.
Democratic Party National Convention
Another topic discussed on the call was the upcoming Democratic National Convention, Hochschild said. The campaign has made it clear that now that it is Kamala — and not President Joe Biden — who the party is planning for the August convention in Chicago, they are quickly rethinking everything from the music to the artists and guests who would be featured at the event. .
