Dough Emhoff shares first time meeting Kamala Harris in DNC convention speech
Doug Emhoff shares first time meeting Kamala Harris in DNC convention speech.
Second gentleman Doug Emhoff hasn’t seen much of his wife in recent weeks. Ever since Vice President Kamala Harris formally accepted the Democratic nomination for president, their conversations usually follow a single track – where he’s been, where he’s headed, what he’s hearing from voters, volunteers and donors.
Emhoff has attended nine fundraisers that have raised more than $7 million in the three weeks since Harris formally accepted the nomination. A tenth one, in Mississippi, is scheduled for Friday.
He has been on the road nonstop since she launched an eleventh-hour bid to win the White House. Emhoff is headlining fundraisers, rallies and volunteer appreciation events across the country, while Harris fulfills her duties as vice president, builds out her campaign platform and introduces herself to voters in battleground states.
“His steadfast support of Vice President Harris is a powerful example of how men can champion women in leadership,” Montgomery County Board of Commissioners chair Jamila Winder told the crowd in Norristown. “He shows us what it means to be an ally, one who listens, advocates and stands shoulder to shoulder in the fight for equality.”
