The lack of support among Democrats for Harris is likely a factor staffers are taking into consideration for their next moves.<\/p>\n<p>Harris\u2019s&nbsp;staffers, often ambitious amid a cutthroat work environment, may be realigning their careers with someone they consider has better hopes of winning the 2024 election. Some have apparently indicated they would prefer to work for Biden\u2019s team, while others are exiting the White House altogether.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B2\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<p>But the departures from the vice president\u2019s office are sure to impact Harris\u2019s chief of staff, Tina Flournoy, who is under pressure to keep Harris\u2019s 2024 hopes alive.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf we mess this up,&nbsp;it\u2019s going to set women back when it comes to running for higher office for years to come,\u201d a Democrat operative told Axios.<\/p>\n<p>Since November, four Harris staffers have either left or plan to leave Harris\u2019 office in the coming weeks, capping months of internal strife.
