Harris casts mail-in ballot, won't say how she voted on get-tough-on-crime ballot measure, Prop 36
Harris is a a former California attorney general and San Francisco district attorney who opposed the death.
Democratic presidential nominee Vice President Kamala Harris, a California resident, told reporters that she cast her Election Day ballot by mail but declined to say how she voted on the state's ballot initiative Proposition 36, which would impose harsher penalties for certain drug and theft-related crimes if approved.
“So my ballot is on its way to California, and I’m going to trust the system that it will arrive there,” Harris, a former California attorney general and San Francisco district attorney, said this past weekend.
She also said about her mail-in ballot choices that she didn't want to publicly endorse a position on the crime measure ahead of Election Day.
“I’m not going to talk about the vote on that because honestly, it is the Sunday before the election and I don’t intend to create an endorsement one way or the other around it but I did vote,” she said.
