Biden Withdraws, Harris Gains Party Support

News summary

Following President Joe Biden's withdrawal from the 2024 presidential race, Vice President Kamala Harris has rapidly consolidated support within the Democratic Party for her presidential bid. Biden's endorsement of Harris has led to a surge of endorsements from prominent Democratic leaders and a significant influx of campaign donations, with Harris raising nearly $50 million shortly after Biden's announcement. Despite some dissenting voices, such as major donor John Morgan refusing to support Harris, and calls for an open nomination process, most Democratic officials have rallied behind her. Harris' candidacy is seen as critical for the party's unity and success against Republican candidate Donald Trump, who has a history of controversial attacks on female opponents. Presidential historian Allan Lichtman emphasized that failing to unite behind Harris could jeopardize the Democrats' chances in the election. Harris has inherited Biden's campaign infrastructure and is working to secure the necessary delegate endorsements to clinch the nomination.
