Shapiro says Harris is showing up in communities that are oftentimes ignored.
Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro makes passionate speech at DNC Night3has been in office since 2023, having previously served as the state's attorney general.
SHAPIRO: Well it's the ultimate swing state. And the last two presidential races have been settled by a point or less in a state of 13 million people. One race was settled by 44,000 votes, the next by 80,000 votes. So it's razor thin. Here's what I'm seeing on the ground though. Incredible enthusiasm for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz. A real movement in the polls, and effectively a tied race. Right? A point or two here or there.
SHAPIRO: Well, great that Donald Trump is spending his time on the couch watching the DNC. Because if he's watching, clearly he's going to see an incredibly energetic, diverse group of not just speakers, but an incredible crowd here as well, talking about the issues that matter most to Pennsylvanians and all Americans.Shapiro had reservations about leaving job as Pa.
SHAPIRO: Well, if it's day 30, I take your word for it. It feels, by the way, sometimes, like it's been 300 days and other times like it's been three days. But, what I've seen is Kamala Harris out in the community, I think pretty much every day, making sure that she's meeting voters where they are. SHAPIRO: Look, Donald Trump has absolutely no credibility to speak on that issue. He is someone who has injected consistently division into our politics, pitting one against another, separating people out and engaging in anti-Semitic tropes and other forms of hatred and bigotry during his time in office.
ABC NEWS: You've obviously known Kamala Harris for more than 20 years. We've heard a lot about her as the politician, the prosecutor. You know her personally. Can you give us some kind of anecdote, something that you might be able to share that we don't know about her?
