Harris will address a historically Black sorority as her campaign hopes to win women of color

Vice President Kamala Harris is going to the solidly Republican state of Indiana to speak to a key Democratic constituency as her campaign sees advantages with female, Black, Latino, Asian and younger voters. Harris will address the biennial gathering of the historically Black sorority Zeta Phi Beta in Indianapolis on Wednesday, just days since entering the 2024 race after President Joe Biden’s departure. The Democratic campaign previously saw a narrow path for Biden but now sees a wider avenue for the vice president, who's of Black and South Asian descent. Campaign chair Jen O’Malley Dillon has issued a memo describing the enthusiasm for Harris as “unprecedented.”
