Vice President Kamala Harris Secures Democratic Party’s 2024 Presidential Nomination
Vice President Kamala Harris has officially become the Democratic Party’s nominee for the 2024 presidential election. The Democratic National Committee (DNC) made the announcement on Monday after a five-day virtual roll call of pledged delegates.
Harris is set to announce her choice for running mate shortly, with a rally in Philadelphia scheduled for Tuesday evening to kick off a seven-battleground state swing. This milestone comes just three days after Harris secured the votes of a majority of pledged delegates.
DNC chair Jaime Harrison expressed pride in confirming Harris as the nominee, making her the first woman of color to lead a major political party’s national ticket. The official nomination vote by delegates was held remotely, with a ceremonial roll call planned for the Democratic National Convention starting on August 19 in Chicago.
This news follows President Joe Biden’s recent decision to end his 2024 re-election campaign, paving the way for Harris to secure the Democratic nomination. Biden’s endorsement of Harris led to a wave of support from Democratic leaders, ultimately solidifying her position as the party’s nominee.
