Laughing Harris Denies Eating ‘Gummies’ When Talking About Election Anxiety

The Democratic nominee joked about the popular way to consume cannabis at an event in Michigan.

Vice President Kamala Harris jokingly denied eating “gummies” at a campaign event in Michigan, while giving supporters a rare glimpse at how the Democratic nominee deals with the stress of the campaign trail. “Everybody I talk to says ‘I have to turn off the news, I can‘t read anything, I’m meditating, I’m doing yoga, I’m so anxious I just don’t even know, I’m eating gummies, all kinds of things,’” moderator Maria Shriver said. “I’m not eating gummies,” Harris immediately replied before breaking out in laughter. Marijuana is legal in Michigan, and Harris came out in support of legalizing the drug nationally last week. Leading up to her 2020 presidential campaign, Harris told The Breakfast Club that she smoked marijuana in college. But Harris did admit she was feeling the pressure of the ongoing campaign. “I wake up in the middle of the night usually these days, just to be honest with you,” the vice president admitted to the audience of supporters.
