Elizabeth Warren Performed Worse Than Kamala In Massachusetts

Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) received fewer votes and a lower share of the votes on Election Day in Massachusetts than failed presidential candidate Kamala Harris.

Warren, however, won her race in the deep blue state, while Harris lost the presidency, even with Massachusetts’ electoral votes. Harris received 2,074,446 votes in the Bay State, while Warren only received 1,988,453 – meaning Warren received 85,993 fewer votes than Harris, with more than 95% of the votes counted, according to Decision Desk HQ.

Harris also received a higher percentage of votes than Warren. Harris won Massachusetts with 61.3% of the vote, while Warren received 59.3% in her re-election bid – a slight difference of two percentage points.

CNN gave Warren even worse numbers, showing her nearly 500,000 votes behind Harris, although the news outlet based that on data showing just 76% of the votes in.

Senate races tend to get less attention than presidential ones, but the vote differences between President-elect Donald Trump and Tim Sheehy, who defeated incumbent Jon Tester (D-MT), are much smaller. Trump received 351,783 to Sheehy’s 319,432 – a difference of 32,351, or less than half the difference in raw vote totals between Harris and Warren. But Montana is a less populated state, so the percentage of votes shows a larger gap between Trump and Sheehy, 58.1% to 52.6%, respectively, according to CNN’s numbers.

Rhode Island, another deep blue state that borders Massachusetts, also showed closer margins between Harris and Warren. Harris won the state with 282,915 votes, or 55.5%, while incumbent Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI) won with 293,265 votes, or 59.9%. Whitehouse performed better than Harris in his re-election bid, according to CNN’s election results.

Despite performing worse than one of the poorest-performing Democrat presidential nominees in decades (Harris lost ground with nearly every demographic across the country), Warren doesn’t seem to have humbled. On her campaign account, she accused her political opponents of being “extremists.”

“The far right wants us to feel powerless,” Warren posted on X on Thursday. “Extremists are counting on apathy, cynicism, & heartbreak to be their rocket fuel. They are counting on us to point fingers at each other & lose trust in our ability to make change. I absolutely refuse to give them the satisfaction.”

Warren also insulted Trump’s pick for Secretary of Defense, Pete Hegseth, by ignoring his 20 years of military service and boasting that she’s on the Senate military personnel despite never serving.

“A Fox & Friends weekend co-host is not qualified to be the Secretary of Defense,” Warren said. “I lead the Senate military personnel panel. All three of my brothers served in uniform. I respect every one of our servicemembers. Donald Trump’s pick will make us less safe and must be rejected.”

Warren’s poor showing compared to Harris could be due to her being the architect of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, a government bureaucracy that has made it more difficult for people to get credit, according to The American Consumer Institute. The pinch has been felt especially since inflation rose under the Biden administration.
