Tennessee House Democratic Leader on Biden/Harris Victory and What Comes Next

Twitter

One of the Tennesseans excited by the news of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris’ victory Saturday is Representative Karen Camper, the Tennessee House Democratic leader.

WUOT's Brandon Hollingsworth spoke with Camper just hours after the alert went out, and after state Democratic party chair Mary Mancini said she would not seek a new term next year. Hollingsworth and Camper discuss what may be ahead for state Democratic officials and what Camper learned from Marquita Bradshaw’s Senate run.

Their conversation begins with how Rep. Camper felt when she learned about the Associated Press’ call for Biden and Harris.
