At his most popular, polls showed him garnering 14 to 16 percent of the vote. But since Haris became the candidate of the Democratic Party, the number of candidates supporting him has dropped to 1 point. Earlier, during a press conference, he had also offered to work with Harris. But the Democrats are said to have ignored him .
