Political ranking service GovTrack quietly deleted its scorecard ranking presumptive Democrat presidential nominee Kamala Harris as the most left-leaning senator of 2019.
GovTrack’s scorecard had ranked Harris as the most radical senator in 2019, even further left than socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt).
In a list of all 100 senators in 2019, Harris scored #100 in its ideology analysis, winning the title of the most leftist senator — Sanders came in right behind her at #99.
CBS News anchor Nora O’Donnell even confronted Harris herself in 2019 over GovTrack rating her as the most left-leaning senator.
CBS: “You’re considered the most liberal United States senator.”
KAMALA: “I— somebody said that, and it was actually Mike Pence on the debate stage…”
CBS: “Actually, nonpartisan GovTrack has rated you as the most liberal senator.”

But shortly after Harris became the Democratic Party’s presumptive presidential nominee by securing the majority of Joe Biden’s delegates this week, GovTrack attached a disclaimer on the page that said:
“Once the 2019-2020 session of Congress was complete, the statistics for the entire session and for Harris’s entire tenure in the senate showed a different story.”
It’s not just Axios. Now GovTrack went back and erased Kamala’s ranking as the most liberal United States Senator.

And soon after that edit, GovTrack ended up scrubbing the page altogether.

This is just the latest example of the media’s effort to rewrite Harris’ record in a bid to make her appear more moderate and accomplished to the American electorate with approximately 100 days left until the 2024 election.
Also on Wednesday, Axios asserted that Republicans and the Trump campaign falsely labeled Harris as Biden’s “border czar”, despite the fact they themselves reported three years ago that Biden appointed her as his border czar.
