Democratic politician Stacey Abrams attributed frequent criticism of Vice President Kamala Harris to discrimination.
The failed Georgia gubernatorial candidate said during an interview on MSNBC's Inside with Jen Psaki on Sunday that Harris would not face the same criticism if she were a white, male politician.

"We will always question the person behind the person, but we cannot ignore the misogyny and racism remain very prevalent in our politics," Abrams said.
"For those behaviors that don't rise to either misogyny or racism, there's also just a difference. Our expectations are set for the traditional white male vice president. It's what it's always been. We are not always great with new," she added. "But more importantly, I know if you filter through the critiques, if you think about how she is castigated, it is inextricably linked to race and gender."
Harris's policy portfolios so far during the administration include trying to solve the root causes of migration, fighting for abortion access, gun control, and voting rights.
Despite Abram's comments, both Harris and President Joe Biden have experienced a dip in their polls in recent weeks.

A New York Times poll out Sunday showed that former President Donald Trump would beat Biden in five of six battleground states, whereas the former president would beat Harris in all six polls.
The poll, while taken about a year before the election, reflects a growing dissatisfaction with the Biden administration amid the wars in Ukraine and Israel.
