Several prominent politicians and celebrities are set to attend a virtual event called 'White Dudes for Harris' on Monday night. The event, organized to show support for Vice President Kamala Harris, has garnered significant attention with an impressive 93,000 RSVPs.
Among the notable figures expected to participate are potential Vice Presidential picks such as Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg, North Carolina Governor Roy Cooper, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, and Illinois Governor JB Pritzker. Additionally, actors Bradley Whitford, Mark Hamill, Mark Ruffalo, and Josh Gad, along with Rep. Adam Schiff and Harris campaign co-chair Mitch Landrieu, will be in attendance.
Organizer Ross Morales Rocketto expressed surprise at the overwhelming response, highlighting the diverse support for Harris among White men who are not aligned with the MAGA movement. The event aims to showcase the broad appeal of Harris's candidacy and attract voters from various backgrounds.
This gathering follows a successful virtual call where thousands of Black women showed their support for Harris after President Joe Biden endorsed her. The event raised $1.5 million for Harris's campaign, demonstrating the enthusiasm and financial backing behind her candidacy.
Building on this momentum, Harris supporters recently organized the 'White Women: Answer the Call 2024' fundraising call. The event featured prominent figures like Rep. Lizzie Fletcher, Rep. Elissa Slotkin, Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand, singer Pink, soccer icon Megan Rapinoe, and actress Connie Britton, raising over $2 million for Harris's campaign.
