NPRHarris is reaching out to Republicans. Some progressives feel left behind toggle caption Asma Khalid/NPR ATLANTA — Brian Ramirez is voting for Vice President Harris — even canvassing for her. Sponsor Message “It just hurts, when she says, ‘I’ll have Republicans in my cabinet’ or she’s campaigning with Liz Cheney,” said Ramirez, who works with the Georgia Youth Justice Coalition, and was part of a small group of grassroots organizers that NPR convened last week. “At this current juncture – they’re doing a way better job than what they were.” Some of the activists said they feel like Harris might be more willing to listen to different, younger perspectives. Marisa Pyle described her vote for Harris as “harm mitigation.” “The reality is one of these two people is going to be president, and I would like the one who’s not going to do fascism,” she said.
