KALAMAZOO, MI (WNWN/WTVB) – Vice President Kamala Harris’ visit to Kalamazoo last Saturday included a hot mic moment as she was having a beer with Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer during a photo op at the Trak Houz Bar and Grill near the Wings Event Center.
Apparently not realizing there were microphones recording a conversation she was having with the governor at the bar; Harris admitted her campaign is having trouble attracting male voters. She told Whitmer, “We need to move ground among men.”
Harris quickly ended the conversation when she saw the mikes saying, “Oh, we have microphones and listening to everything, I didn’t realize that.”
Whitmer then joked with reporters saying, “Okay… you’ll bleep my F words hopefully.” Harris then added, “We just told all the family secrets” before uttering an expletive and laughing.
The video of the exchange led to a lot of conversation on social media platforms.
It’s the second awkward moment for Whitmer in recent weeks. A video showed her hand feeding a Dorito chip to a kneeling woman while wearing a Harris-Walz campaign hat. Some felt it was similar to how Catholics receive Communion and Whitmer was forced to apologize.
