Democratic presidential hopeful Kamala Harris delivered a strong performance in Thursday night’s debate, as she attacked front-runner Joe Biden for his stance decades ago on busing and called for order at one point when candidates were yelling over one another.

Harris went after Biden for opposing busing in the 1970s, noting her personal link to the matter since at the time she was “a little girl in California who was part of the second class to integrate her public schools.” The former vice president responded that he “did not oppose busing in America,” but rather busing “ordered by the Department of Education.” Harris fired back that the federal government needed to step in because states were failing to integrate public schools.

Harris entered the debate as a top-tier candidate with support of 7%, but still well behind Biden’s 32%, according to a RealClearPolitics average of polls. In the spin room, she stressed that she has work to do to attract supporters, while Biden is already well-known. “I’m still in the process of introducing my work and my plan to voters across the country,” she said.

— GoogleTrends June 28, 2019 Williamson was No. 1 among Thursday’s 10 debate participants when it came to generating a spike in Google searches, while Harris was No. 2. Williamson got attention for her unconventional statements at the debate, as she declared that she would “harness love for political purposes” and promised that her first call as president would be to New Zealand’s prime minister.
