Vice President Kamala Harris has officially declared her candidacy for the 2024 presidential election following President Joe Biden's withdrawal from the race and his endorsement. Biden's exit has also garnered support for Harris from Democratic leaders, including former President Barack Obama and former first lady Michelle Obama. Harris's campaign slogan, 'We Choose Freedom,' underscores her dedication to justice and equity, with a focus on marginalized communities, healthcare, and education. Polls show a tight race between Harris and former President Donald Trump, with Harris slightly ahead in key battleground states. Despite facing criticism from Republicans like House Speaker Mike Johnson over her policies, Harris's campaign has seen significant fundraising and voter enthusiasm, positioning her as the likely Democratic nominee.
