kamala harris is a bay area native and she's now first black woman and indian american person ever named as a running mate by either major political party and she could become the country's first ever black woman and indian-american named after a president. >> there are women around the country that feel like they finally have a seat at the table. >> to be we have insight into both the political and personal aspects of biden'sbiden'sbiden's liz, let's begin with you. >> this is the announcement we've all been waiting for, finally here and it is an historic one. senator harris who we know very well in the bay area is the third woman in history to be picked for the vice presidential on t first announcement came in and then a tweet. senator kamala harris knownany oakland hack officially tapped

as joe biden's running mate. biden's pick, historic. she is the first black female and first indian-american on a presidential ticket. this news was overwhelming. >> those of us who worked on her campaign, i cannot, as a woman, as a woman of color, as an indian-american, i can't tell you what this feels like. i'm just so happy. >> she was among several women biden was considering for the vp position including elizabeth warren and karen bass. in a tweet biden explained why he picked harris saying she worked closely with his late son beau when he was attorney general of california. i watched as they lifted up working people and protected

women and kids from abuse. i was prout proud then and i'm proud now. but things haven't always been so warm between the running mates. last year harris went after him on the debate stage. >> you acknowledge you were wrong. >> the two rivals, now friends. seen here photographed together for the first time today as running mates. it is a moment she said she'll never forget. she said she feels seen. >> my daughters see themselves in her. and i think for women of color around the country today, they feel seen and heard. >> and we haven't heard her exempt for a tweet. she said she had honored and will do what it takes on make him commander in chief. >> as you mentioned, she was one

of many women being considered for this position. do we know why he chose her? >> the people in biden's world say harris checked all the necessary boxes. there are concerns about her background as a prosecutor. what is interesting is that bernie sanders's supporters say they appreciate that she has moved farther to the left. and some republican who's don't like president trump said they appreciate she isn't as far left as say, elizabeth warren. she sort of hits this middle ground that can possibly have a wider appeal. >> all right. thank you. "san francisco chronicle" insider and abc7 news contribute or phil mattier is here to discuss it. kamala harris is a seasoned publicer is vand public servant, a senator, a district attorney, a presidential candidate. she dropped out of the campaign fairly early on. how well is she known around the country and how do you think she'll do on this ticket with

joe biden? >> an interesting question. she didn't do all that well had she launched on the national stage. first out of the gate. huge numbers and then they dropped when the campaign went on. she was out before the campaign really got underway. they were looking for someone who can generate some excitement. he did a poll a couple weeks ago of california democrats. even in california, only about one out of four were really excited about biden running for president. what they were excited about was voting about trump out of office. so is harris going to be able to navigate that as well without drawing negative attention? that remains to be seen.

>> so how does this play out? >> there is always more than one race afoot, i'll tell you. already the conjecture is out there. if she wins the vice presidency, then governor gavin newsom would appoint someone to fill out her term. that would make them the senator since california is a heavily democratic area and there is no end to the list of possible contenders. you have congressman karen bass from los angeles who was on the short list for the vp as well. you have alex padilla, you have congressman eric swalwell, congressman adam schiff, you have fiona, state office holders out there. every type, size, fit out there is already looking at that going, it will be a very interesting couple months as we run the presidential race and who will be the next senator for california.

>> yeah. a lot to play out. it will be very interesting. we appreciate your insight. thank you. >> as a black man, i am absolutely blown away that there is on that ticket a black woman of the vice presidency. >> today, brown reiterated that he believes the political ambitions would have been better served if she became biden's attorney general instead of vice president. >> i may be old timing in the sense of trying to make sure that you play the game the way you need to play the game. you want to be the president. at some point you have to show thatture true leader. not that you are the follower of

someone elgs who is the leader. >> but he says she will be the most important surrogate biden will have in the campaign. another san francisco mayor was quick to praise joe biden's choice. she was san francisco's district attorney when newsom was the mayor. london breed tweeted calling harris a mentor. harris was the first woman to serve as san francisco d.a. mayor libby schaaf posted a picture that's a clear nod to her roots. she said she is proud. barbara lee chimed in giving a ringing endorsement. >> the vice president trusts her, he knows her and she will be an excellent partner in the situation room, the cabinet meetings, and she's a woman who is fully prepared for this. >> as you can imagine, republicans have a different perspective. california congressman kevin mccarthy took on twitter writing

her radical agenda has been terrible for californians and it would be for the rest of america. president trump called her phony, recommending the radical left. we help break the news of the announcement with this push alert. down load the app so you'll be the first to know when news breaks. now let's turn to our efforts to build a better bay area. new data on cases and deaths. but because of an issue with the state's database as we've been reporting, it is likely that we're not getting accurate numbers but this is the information we have to work with. the number new coronavirus cases skyrocketed to 12,500. it is close to the one-day high record set in late july.

>> she is the curator of the berkeley south asian radical walking tour. >> i think one of the reasons it might be controversial is that we don't have as many representations, of indian culture, in our media still. and even when we have the representations, they tend to still focus on things like poverty or in this case, arranged marriage. things that are still a fascination for the west. >> she reveals, the women more than the men are told to compromise. colorism is an issue. the match maker often mentions the fairness of someone's skin. >> it is real and very traumatic to hear that being said about some of the participant of the show. some of them are really independent, cool women. >> reporter: she said she's well aware these troubling aspects that still exist within indian society and not immune to them.

she was surprised to see a face reader make an upsetting comment about her. >> one line that i made, if this match doesn't work, then her future is bleak. that's what he said about me. and i'm like, i really home that's not true. >> she's glad it features these moments. >> we may not be slim and trim. we're educated, confident people. isn't that what really matters in this day and age? >> in the meantime, and sorry, spoil alert. she didn't end up with her match. >> as they would say, the stars didn't align. >> if you're watching -- >> long term goal is to be back in the bay area. i'm single and ready to mingle. >> abc7 news. >> yeah. i think a lot of people find that very fascinating, dan. >> it is interesting.
