I live in a swing state and got plenty of ads from both campaigns and I never saw Kamala ad that advocated for higher wages or paid sick or family leave. It's very obvious the plan was to go after disaffected Republicans instead of policies accepted by a large majority of Americans. Democrats are running campaigns like it's 2004.
