Vice President Kamala Harris was introduced to a North Carolina crowd with the wrong anthem Friday.

Harris was at North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University when “Hail to the Chief” began playing. This is known as the presidential anthem, reserved for the presence of the commander in chief, hence the title. Typically, “Hail Columbia” is the anthem played for the vice president.

It is unclear if this was a mistake made on the part of the White House staff or university staff. The song cut out abruptly before it could finish, which was about 16 seconds.

Harris went on with her speech to the Aggies and did not address the opening music.

The Friday visit was part of the vice president’s 14-date college tour aimed at reaching young voters and talking up Democratic positions on abortion, gun control, LGBT rights, and climate change. It was her second campus since it began Thursday.

“Well, as a proud HBCU graduate, it was very important for me to start this tour as some of the most distinguished, exceptional, higher education institutions in America, and that is why I am here at A&T,” Harris said.

Harris is on President Joe Biden’s ticket for reelection in 2024. Should Biden win, he would be 86 years old at the end of his second term. This has left many to speculate on the possibility of Harris becoming the de facto commander in chief should something happen to the president in the meantime.

Biden is facing off against two other Democratic candidates, environmental lawyer Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and author Marianne Williamson, in the race to win his second term.
