After stealing all of Joe Biden’s delegates, the Harris camp is now blocking the press from interviewing voters.
This is what ‘saving democracy’ looks like according to the Democrat party.
According to lefty reporters, the Harris camp is not allowing the press to speak with Pennsylvania voters!
Per a reporter for the Associated Press: Harris campaign is blocking reporters from talking to voters outside the press pen here at Whitmer/Shapiro event in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania.

A HuffPost reporter fumed after she was blocked from being able to mingle with voters.
“Weird look!” she said.
Haven’t been to a Dem rally in a minute (so not sure what the recent protocol has been), but reporters at today’s Harris campaign event in Ambler, Pa., fearing Whitmer and Shapiro (and not Harris) aren’t allowed to mingle in the crowd…. 2 hours before the event. Weird look!

Harris campaign aide said reporters are being blocked due to a safety protocol.
We’re allowed to talk to people who approach the press pen. Aides have also offered to bring us volunteers — and said we can probably get away with speaking to folks outside the venue. An aide described this as a “safety” protocol that has nothing to do with Trump shooting.

Sudden change of policy after some pushback. Reporters allowed to mingle on the auditorium floor. https://t.co/EWc5AwQ5ar
