Kamala Harris is essentially shutting down her New Hampshire campaign
It looks like the beginning of the end for Sen. Kamala Harris (D-Calif.).
The 2020 contender's presence in New Hampshire is fading fast, with a spokesperson confirming to The Associated Press that she's closing down all her field offices in the state. And with news that her campaign is sputtering in other states too, it likely means Harris' frontrunner status isn't on track to return.

Harris will still have a "staff presence" in New Hampshire, spokesperson Nate Evans told Politico, but called the closures a "strategic decision to realign resources to go all-in on Iowa." The news comes just two days after Harris' campaign announced it was laying off staffers in other states and pulling others to Iowa. But Harris' hopes in Iowa don't look super promising, seeing as she came in at just 3 percent in a Friday New York Times/Siena College poll, a percentage point behind Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-Minn.).
