MSNBC host Jonathan Capehart told candidates seeking to chair the Democratic National Committee they “passed” when they blamed “racism and misogyny” for former Vice President Kamala Harris’ defeat in the 2024 election.

President-elect Donald Trump secured the 270 electoral votes necessary to win the presidency early in the morning of Nov. 6, 2024, fueled by increased support from black and Hispanic voters compared to his previous campaigns. Capehart asked for a show of hands among the contenders when he asked the question during a forum in a video clip posted on X late Thursday.

WATCH:

“So, I’m going to have a show of hands. How many of you believe that racism and misogyny played a role in Vice President Harris’ defeat?” Capehart asked the contenders.

All eight of the contenders, including former Democratic Gov. Martin O’Malley of Maryland, state Democratic Party chairmen Ben Wikler of Wisconsin and Ken Martin of Minnesota, former Democratic Mayor Rahm Emanuel of Chicago, and former Democratic presidential candidate Marianne Williamson, raised their hands in response.

“Okay. So… That’s good, you all passed,” Capehart said.

Trump has increased his support among minority voters across his three presidential campaigns. Trump carried 46% of the Hispanic vote, 40% of the Asian vote and 13% of the black vote while defeating Harris in 2024, according to CNN’s exit poll.

In 2020, Trump carried 32% of Hispanic voters, 34% of Asian voters and 12% of black voters in his very narrow loss to then-former Vice President Joe Biden, according to CNN’s exit poll. By comparison, in CNN’s 2016 exit poll, Trump only received 28% of the Hispanic vote, 27% of the Asian vote and 8% of the black vote while defeating former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton.

While many Democrats and corporate media outlets blamed racism and sexism for Harris’ Nov. 5 loss, she had been unpopular with voters prior to Biden’s July 21 announcement that he was ending his reelection bid. Harris secured the Democratic nomination shortly after she received Biden’s endorsement without receiving a single primary vote in the 2024 Democratic primaries.

Harris also had difficulty explaining how she would represent a change from Biden after prices rose by over 20% since she and Biden took office in January 2021. She and her running mate, Democratic Gov. Tim Walz of Minnesota, rarely did interviews after Biden ended his reelection bid until doing a media blitz in October.

Harris’ campaign spent over $1.5 billion in the 2024 election while losing the swing states of Georgia, Arizona, Nevada, Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania that Biden carried in 2020.
