As Vice Presidential candadate Kamala Harris made her way across the State of Texas on
Friday, her stop in Austin was brief. Trump supporters reportedly followed Harris' campaign
bus across Texas, demonstrating at her events in an effort to disrupt them.
The Austin rally was to host a number of Democrats including United States Representative
District 21 candadate Wendy Davis, United States Representative District 35 Lloyd Doggett
and Austin Mayor Steve Adler. Organizers cancelled the event so not to take away attention
from Vice Presidential candidate Kamala Harris.

A joint event was suppose to have taken place in Pflugerville with the Joe Biden campagin
and Austin Young Democrats but it was also cancelled due to security reasons. Austin City
Council member Sheryl Cole tweeted "Unfortunately, Pro-Trump Protestors have escalated well
beyond safe limits. Sorry, to all who looked forward to this fun event."
Also Harris hosted three other campaign stops in Houston, Fort Worth and McAllen Friday.
