Kamala Harris faces the dubious distinction of being the first vice president of the United States to have broken the most ties in the Senate of the United States period.
She falls right in line with John Calhoun and John Adams from back in the 18th and 19th centuries, combined period. This risks a dangerous possibility as far as the Los Angeles Times is concerned, and it’s this.

This is a big, big litmus test for this upcoming election.
