Haley Voters for Harris (HV4H) is an American political action committee (PAC) that consists of former supporters of Nikki Haley's 2024 presidential campaign, who have since switched their support Kamala Harris' 2024 presidential campaign.[1]
Background
[edit]The organization says it is an outgrowth of Primary Pivot, a group that encouraged democrats and independents to vote for Haley in the primaries.[2]
The organization was founded on March 6, 2024 under the name Haley Voters for Biden (HV4B).[3] This was the same day Haley suspended her presidential campaign.[3]
The organization received a cease and desist letter from Haley in July 2024.[3][4] The organization said they plan to ignore the letter.[2]
Messaging
[edit]Democracy is a major issue for a number of voters who used to support Nikki Haley but now support Kamala Harris.[5]
Kamala Harris' experience as a prosecutor has appeal for some Haley voters.[6]
The border is an issue that the organization has addressed, trying to educate voters about how the Biden-Harris administration pushed a bill to greatly expand the number of border agents beyond what Trump had proposed during his presidency.[6]
The organization also has pointed to greater oil production under Biden than Trump.[6]
