Kamala Harris’ 2020 campaign called Baltimore home. Some staffers still do.

Like many D.C. dwellers, Jasmine Clemons never saw the need to venture north to visit the nation’s Capital Beltway neighbor, Baltimore. “The closest I ever got was going to BWI airport,” the 40-year-old said, laughing. A burgeoning senator named Kamala Harris changed all of that. Clemons dropped her life in the nation’s capital for a downtown apartment in Charm City filled with long workdays sprinkled in with visits to local haunts recommended by native-Baltimore staffers during her time working for the campaign.
