Former President Donald Trump received considerably more votes in the 2020 Democratic presidential primaries as a write-in candidate than Vice President Kamala Harris, who sought the party’s nomination but dropped out before the first primary election, Federal Election Commission (FEC) records show.

Harris on Monday secured enough verbal commitments from Democratic National Convention delegates to secure the presidential nomination for her party, despite never winning a delegate in an election and only getting 844 voters in the 2020 Democratic presidential primary, according to FEC records. Former President Donald Trump, despite not running for the Democratic nomination, received 3,793 write-in votes in the party’s 2020 presidential primary.

Though Harris dropped out of the 2020 Democratic primary in December 2019, she still appeared on the Democratic primary ballots in New Hampshire on Feb. 11, 2020, and Arkansas, which held its primary March 3. Harris received zero write-in votes in the California primary on March 3, 2020, despite it being her home state.

Trump received all his Democratic primary write-in votes in the New Hampshire and Pennsylvania elections, according to FEC data.

Republicans have widely criticized the Democratic Party’s swift consolidation around Harris as undemocratic.

“The idea of selecting the Democratic Party’s nominee because George Soros and Barack Obama and a couple of elite Democrats got in a smoke-filled room and decided to throw Joe Biden overboard? That is not how it works,” Republican Vice Presidential nominee J.D. Vance said in Ohio on Monday, the New York Post reported. He called Democratic leadership installing Harris as the nominee without input from voters a “threat to democracy.”

Harris was polling at an average of 3% when she dropped out of the 2020 Democratic primary, according to Roll Call. She cited a lack of financial resources at the time. After the California primary on March 3, 2020, Harris endorsed then-candidate Joe Biden, who selected her as his running mate later that year.

“Kamala Harris is just as weak, failed and incompetent as Joe Biden — and she’s also dangerously liberal. Not only does Kamala need to defend her support of Joe Biden’s failed agenda over the past four years, she also needs to answer for her own terrible weak-on-crime record in California,” Trump campaign national press secretary Karoline Leavitt told the Daily Caller News Foundation. “A vote for Kamala is a vote for more crime, inflation, open borders, high gas prices, and war around the world, and our team will make sure every American knows it.”

Polls conducted since Biden dropped out and endorsed Harris on Sunday show no clear leader between the vice president and Trump.

The Harris campaign did not immediately respond to the DCNF’s request for comment.
