schema:text	The X user who promoted this rumor previously posted similar unfounded claims and, in this case, provided no evidence to support the story. Further, the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review newspaper reported that Pennsylvania officials said they expected record voter turnout — not a lack thereof. On Nov. 4, 2024 — the day before the U.S. Election Day — an X user displaying the name Gunther Eagleman (@GuntherEagleman) claimed that a source inside U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris' campaign said she went "crazy" and "snapped" due to a purported lack of voter turnout in Pennsylvania. The post (archived) read: "BREAKING: Source inside the Kamala Harris campaign says Kamala has gone absolutely batsht crazy at the lack of voter turnout in PA. 'She snapped.'" As of this writing, the post amassed more than 5.9 million views. While this fact check was published on Election Day, and final voting numbers were not yet available regarding turnout in the state, the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review newspaper, which covers news within Pennsylvania, wrote on TribLIVE.com on Nov. 5 (archived): "Western Pa. voters cast their ballots amid expected record voter turnout." The story also noted: "Officials are expecting a record turnout of voters today amid a National Weather Service forecast of sunny skies with a high in the low 80s." (TribLIVE) No reputable news outlets reported on Harris snapping or "going crazy" at a purported low voter turnout in Pennsylvania. Further, @GuntherEagleman did not provide evidence to support the rumor about Harris' demeanor. Snopes was unable to contact the account after it blocked this reporter. As such, we have rated the claim as unfounded — a rating we apply regarding claims typically originating as hearsay, speculation or groundless rumor. A draft community note not yet appearing publicly under @GuntherEagleman's post documented the fact the user had previously posted other seemingly unfounded claims about Harris "crumbling" and "panicking" while on the campaign trail. Those posts also mentioned one or more purported sources, none of which the user named. (X) In our research, we also noted that, on Nov. 4, @GuntherEagleman shared and then deleted a false rumor claiming NBA superstar Michael Jordan endorsed former President Donald Trump. Snopes reported the facts about that election-related claim, as well.
