How Kamala Harris' Shortened Campaign Timeline Could Work In Her Favor

Vice President Harris continues campaigning around the country ahead of the November presidential election.Brandon Bell via Getty ImagesKamala Harris knew she'd have a quick race to the election when she began her bid for president.While some speculated a shortened run could hurt her odds, experts told BI it might be a benefit.Harris voters have less time to lose energy, and Trump has less time to hone attacks.When Kamala Harris took up Joe Biden's mantle last month and launched her campaign for president, she did so knowing that she'd have an abbreviated run leading up to the election.While some speculated that a shortened campaign could hurt her odds of winning, giving her little time to introduce her platform and ingratiate herself with voters and deep-pocketed fundraisers, two political experts told Business Insider that a brief run could benefit Harris.Alison Dagnes, a political science professor at Shippensburg University, told BI that, with about three months left until the election, there's just not much time for the Harris campaign to make big mistakes or exhaust its goodwill among voters.Harris' campaign started with sighs of relief from Democratic voters over Biden dropping out and instant enthusiasm that contributed to Harris' record-breaking fundraising efforts, Dagnes, who focuses on political media, said.Dagnes said even more momentum could be built from the much-anticipated news surrounding Harris' pick for her running mate, which has already generated excitement thanks to a deep bench of telegenic Democrats who appear to be up for the job.Then, it's on to the Democratic party's convention in Chicago, where CNN reports President Joe Biden and former President Barack Obama are expected to speak on Harris's behalf.
