She talked about how she wanted to invest more in infrastructure in the debate when talking about the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, saying it was a good start but there needs to be more. Here’s a link to details about how that would look (largely investment in new green energy productions and building millions of affordable homes which she talked multiple times): https://www.mintz.com/insights-center/viewpoints/2236/2024-09-11-_024-pre-election-analysis-infrastructure
She talked about raising the top tax rate to 39.6% and introduce a unrealized gains tax on people who have more than 100 million in unrealized gains in the stock market, as well as an increase in the core capital gains tax (while not a “millionaires tax” it’s definitely something more likely to be passed as it impacts the most rich people out there as opposed to some that might have just gotten lucky and saved enough to get a million or two dollars. Could be better but still to say she didn’t support taxing the rich is BS.). Here’s a thing breaking down all her tax policies https://apps.urban.org/features/2024-candidates-tax-policy/
The Biden Administration that she was apart of was incredibly pro-union and implemented multiple rules in the federal government that made it easier to join a union and there was no reason to think she would be any different especially since she openly talked about how important unions are and was the only candidate to be pro the dock worker strike: https://www.politico.com/news/2024/10/02/harris-striking-dockworkers-trump-00182203
Now, If I can count correctly, her supporting 6 is a lot more than “not a single one of those things” and is also a majority of the 9 that were listed.

She literally was in the administration that was using the power of medicare to negotiate prices for 10 prescription drugs to be lower. And always framed it as “the first 10” instead of the only 10. Here’s here literally statement last august with that same phrasing: https://bidenwhitehouse.archives.gov/briefing-room/statements-releases/2024/08/15/statement-from-vice-president-kamala-harris-on-lower-prescription-drug-prices/
Here’s an article about how the DNC platform, and thus Harris’ platform, would have pushed for a lot of new investments in public education (including universal Pre-K and being against “school choice” BS) which would have required increased federal funding: https://www.edweek.org/policy-politics/where-does-kamala-harris-stand-on-education-inside-the-2024-democratic-platform/2024/08

Damn too bad none of that reached people.
She should have campaigned on that
They bring receipts and you can’t just say “oh I was wrong.”
So, they weren’t. I remember biden cracking down on a5lt least one major strike.
But if they had been, theyre saying it would’ve been a great platform to run on, and neither did. The campaigns were incompetent.
