Today (November 8th), residents of a village in southern India from which Kamala Harris's maternal grandfather hailed celebrated the victory of the vice president-elect with firecrackers and special sweets.
Footage showed locals setting off the pyrotechnics and eating some sweets from Tamil Nadu's Thulasendrapuram village. Children printed Harris placards and paraded them around the small village. A local minister who came to enjoy the festivities even visited them.
After her inauguration in January, Harris will be the first Indian American, the first African American, and the first female vice president in U.S. history.
