Kamala Harris is No Longer the 'Most Liberal Senator' as GovTrack Deletes Their Page that Ranked Her
GovTrack confirmed to
Fox News Digital that they had removed the 2019 web page ranking Harris as that year's "most liberal" senator sometime within the last two weeks. The organization's founder, Joshua Tauberer, explained that the removal was due to a policy change made "several years ago" to end single-year ratings of lawmakers in favor of ratings based on full Congressional sessions.
Tauberer stated, "We determined that the limited data available in a single year was not sufficient to create a reliable portrait of the activity of legislators, particularly given the ebbs and flows of the legislative calendar, and therefore did not serve as a useful tool to our users and the
American public."
The timing of this deletion is getting people talking because it happened right when big political news was breaking. President Joe Biden recently announced he was hitting pause on his campaign and throwing his support behind Kamala Harris as the Democratic nominee. Harris then said she had gathered enough delegates to win the nomination at the next DNC.
