(DailyChive.com) – During her presidential campaign, Vice President Kamala Harris poured millions into flashy events, star appearances, and high-profile media. One major example was a $1 million payment to Harpo Productions, Oprah Winfrey’s company, according to The Washington Examiner. This payment came after Winfrey hosted a glitzy town hall for Harris in September and showed up at her last big rally in Philadelphia the night before Election Day, giving Harris a rare and high-profile endorsement.
“We’re voting for values and integrity,” Winfrey said at the rally, voicing her support. “We’re voting for healing over hate.”
But Oprah wasn’t the only celebrity Harris’s team splurged on. According to reports, they also spent a large sum on the popular podcast Call Her Daddy. A source told The Examiner that the campaign spent six figures on setting up Harris’s interview with Alex Cooper, the show’s host. The interview, which aired in October, was reportedly filmed in a D.C. hotel room, decked out specifically for the occasion.
This was only part of the campaign’s massive spending spree. Reports indicate they spent close to $20 million in swing states just before the election. This included organizing seven concerts, one in each key state, featuring famous artists like Jon Bon Jovi, Christina Aguilera, Katy Perry, Lady Gaga, and rapper 2 Chainz. The hope was to energize voters, though one planned performance by Alanis Morissette had to be canceled.
“Money can’t buy you love or a good candidate,” Republican strategist Brad Todd told The Examiner, in response to Harris’s big-budget tactics. <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/kamalas-campaign-paid-oprah-1m-during-her-failed-white-house-quest-report" target="_
