Kamala Harris Reveals Her Master Plan for Democrats to Beat ‘Cheating’ Republicans: ‘This Is Going To Be Controversial…’

It might be time to ditch the the Electoral College, according to Kamala Harris.

The ex-vice president floated the idea as one of her suggestions for her fellow Democrats, if they want to beat the “ruthless” Republicans in the 2026 midterms and the 2028 presidential election. Harris dished her three-pronged plan for Dems while speaking at the National Urban League Conference on July 31 in Nashville.

She said Dems have no choice but to consider radical ideas as a way to counter “cheating” by the GOP.

“I know this is going to be controversial coming from me in particular — we need to revisit the Electoral College,” Harris said.

The idea drew a few claps from the crowd.

“We need to revisit the point of expanding the court to 13 justices like we have 13 district courts,” she continued. “We need to revisit, if they so want, statehood for Puerto Rico and D.C.”

Harris, of course, was talking about adding four judges to the U.S. Supreme Court. Former President Joe Biden was the last commander-in-chief to pick a Supreme Court justice back in 2022, when Ketanji Brown Jackson was appointed.

Her recommendation Dems need to “revisit” the Electoral College comes two years after she lost it 312-226 to President Donald Trump. The president received about 77.3 million votes in 2024 — which was a shade less than 50% of the votes — on his way to winning 31 states, while Harris earned roughly 75 million votes.

Harris on Friday ripped one of Trump’s ’24 slogans as a way to drive home her point about drastic changes.

“In light of and in this environment where they are cheating, we will be too big to rig. Too big to rig,” she said. “It means being ruthless — they are ruthless! We need to be ruthless too.”

Harris continued, “and by that, I do not mean cruel. That is not our nature. By that I do not mean breaking the law. That is not what we do. But I do mean we must be uncompromising, and we must allow for a real conversation about revisiting certain things.”
