Harris secures delegates

Vice President Kamala Harris has secured enough delegate support to become the Democratic Party's 2024 presidential nominee following President Biden's withdrawal from the race. Harris received endorsements from prominent figures, including Biden, former Presidents Bill and Hillary Clinton, and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. She raised over $100 million since Biden's endorsement, including a record $81 million in the first day of her campaign. Despite her substantial backing, the official nomination will not occur until the Democratic National Convention in August, where other candidates could still emerge. Some Democratic elites, including Barack Obama and Chuck Schumer, have yet to endorse Harris, indicating potential divisions within the party. Harris has positioned herself as a candidate ready to defeat Donald Trump in the upcoming election, emphasizing a vision for a more inclusive America.
