Kamala Harris has blamed the influence of online "manosphere" figures for losing young male voters in the 2024 election. In her new memoir, 107 Days, she admits feeling devastated by her loss of support among men under 30. She explains that these young voters came of age during the pandemic, a time of isolation, which led many to turn to figures like Andrew Tate and Myron Gaines, who promote get-rich schemes and anti-feminist views.
Harris argues that this shift shaped how young men viewed her candidacy. She was surprised that economic concerns, rather than issues like reproductive rights or climate change, dominated their priorities. A Tufts University study found that 40% of young men prioritized the economy, while only 13% focused on abortion and 8% on climate change.
Although Harris highlights policies aimed at young people, such as student debt relief and renter protections, she acknowledges they didn’t resonate. She laments that her campaign couldn’t overcome the perception that Trump would be better for their financial futures.
Since the book's release, Harris has faced criticism, including for remarks about Pete Buttigieg being too “risky” as a running mate due to his sexuality. Buttigieg responded by emphasizing that voters care more about what candidates can do for them than their identity, while former Chicago mayor Rahm Emanuel suggested Harris should have trusted her instincts.
