I suspect Harris looked at this poll or something like it. Americans don’t know what they want, but they do know what they don’t want, and that’s too much change at one time. Which is a shame because Obama ran on Hope and Change. But by the time he took office, the gap between people who said that they thought the Government should take responsibility for quality healthcare and those who say that it’s none of the Government’s business shrank from like +40 to almost 0, and only in a matter of 2 years. Then he passed the ACA, and that number went negative. Between Progressives leaving him high and dry and moderates saying he went to far, Obama just got creamed on this. And I’m sure Harris wants to serve more than one term, especially if the Trumpster Fire is still kicking around in 2028!

By the same token she needs Pennsylvania and 58% of registered voters want to ban fracking because it negatively effects them…
Like you said, the people know what they don’t work, but both candidate have explicitly said they won’t ban fracking.
If Harris is doing what you’re saying and just trying to win, why not ban fracking?
Couple of ideas here:
