Can someone explain what's up with Harris's accent? It sure isn't Californian.

Well for one thing she isn't white, and she spent her teenage years in Canada.

What accent? I don't hear any accent. Her father was Jamaican and I still don't hear any hint of that.

Her mother (who she was actually mostly raised by) was from India, but you wouldn't be able to tell from the way she talks.

I don't think Kamala would realistically have picked up a stereotypical Cali accent in her childhood, since she 1) initially grew up in a black neighborhood, and 2) spent her teenage years in Canada
