Can you tell us how many serious felonies you have tried? Can you tell us one?” Fazio asked.“I’ve tried about 50 cases, Mr. Fazio, and it’s about leadership,” Harris responded.“Why does your information, which is still published, say that you tried hundreds of serious felonies? I think that’s misleading. I think that’s disingenuous,” Fazio continued.Read Meet Kamala’s 'incredible' team of antisemitic Islamists“I think that shows that you are incapable of leadership and you’re not to be trusted. You continue to put out information which says you have tried hundreds of serious felonies.”Harris did not dispute Fazio’s claims, simply responding, “Leadership, working with different communities as a career prosecutor, I’ve done that, which is why I, not you, have every law enforcement organization’s endorsement.”The resurfaced audio and mailers come as Harris’s campaign makes her record as a former prosecutor a focal point of her 2024 bid for the presidency.When questioned this week by ABC News about her prosecutorial record prior to becoming district attorney, Harris’s campaign backed down from her earlier description, stating instead that she “oversaw” and was “involved in” hundreds of cases.Read WATCH: 'Yahya Sinwar you make us proud,' chant Hamas supporters outside presidential debateHarris’s running mate Minnesota Gov.
