The Democratic National Convention kicks off today, and it’s got us reflecting on what a Harris administration would mean for D.C. Kamala Harris has had a connection with the District since the 1980s, long before she started her political career. Axios DC’s Mimi Montgomery has the story on Kamala Harris’ relationship with DC, her favorite spots, and how her presidency would affect the city.

We’ve also reported on how Donald Trump has promised — and threatened — to change D.C. if he’s back in the White House.
