Vice President Kamala Harris is set to visit the headquarters of the Democrat's revamped campaign on Monday, following her emergence as the leading candidate for the 2024 Democratic nomination. This comes after President Joe Biden announced his withdrawal from the 2024 presidential race on Sunday, relinquishing the Biden-Harris ticket that had been in the spotlight for several months. Biden promptly threw his support behind Harris, leading to the swift rebranding of the campaign as the 'Harris for President' initiative.
In a social media post, Harris expressed her excitement about the campaign's first full day, mentioning her plans to visit the headquarters in Wilmington, DE to meet with the staff. Demonstrating her determination, the vice president declared, 'One day down. 105 to go. Together, we're going to win this,' less than a day after Biden's exit from the race.
While Harris has garnered the endorsement of a majority of congressional Democrats to be the party's 2024 nominee, her official nomination still awaits confirmation through a vote at the Democratic National Convention. The political landscape is abuzz with anticipation as Harris solidifies her position as the frontrunner for the Democratic ticket in the upcoming presidential election.
