Jewish Democrats on Harris

News summary

Ahead of the November election, several prominent Jewish Democrats express support for Vice President Kamala Harris despite concerns over her choice of Minnesota Governor Tim Walz as her running mate instead of Jewish Governor Josh Shapiro. This decision has sparked unease among liberal Jewish circles, with some viewing it as a capitulation to anti-Jewish sentiments within the Democratic Party. Former Obama advisor Van Jones highlighted the growing perception of antisemitism in the party, while Harris's campaign has garnered support from the Black Muslim Leadership Council, raising fears among Jewish Democrats about potential biases in her approach. Critics argue that endorsing groups perceived as sympathetic to Hamas may alienate Jewish voters. In response to the backlash, Shapiro publicly backed Harris, emphasizing her capabilities and the strength of her running mate. The situation reflects a complex balancing act for the Democratic Party as it navigates diverse perspectives on the Israel-Palestine conflict and electoral strategies.
