David Plouffe described Harris's 107-day campaign as a 'rescue mission' in response to 'catastrophic' polling numbers for Biden, specifically among young voters.
Plouffe noted 'the internal numbers for Biden were pretty gruesome' with young voters, including Hispanic, Black, and Asian populations, showing significant declines.
He emphasized the impact of not having a competitive primary on the party's strength, suggesting that candidates coming out of such a process would be better prepared.
Plouffe remarked that even with a competitive primary, the headwinds faced by any Democrat would still make victory challenging, but it was 'the cardinal sin' to lack such a primary.
