Claim: Instagram post claims that a Craigslist ad shows “every single person” at the Harris rally in Arizona was a paid actor.
Vice President Kamala Harris drew more than 15,000 people to her Aug. 9 presidential campaign rally in Arizona — one of her largest campaign crowds yet. But some online are claiming those attendees were paid to be there.
“It’s being reported that every single person at the Kamala rally was paid, carefully vetted and the majority were flown in,” a woman says in an Instagram post. “It was invite-only and not open to the public. They’re all paid actors.”
But Harris’ rally, during which she appeared with her running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, was not held at the Phoenix Convention Center; it was at the Desert Diamond Arena in Glendale, Arizona, 18 miles from the convention center.
