Rep. Adam Schiff, the Democratic nominee for the US Senate in California, has officially endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris as the Democratic Party's nominee for the 2024 presidential race. In a statement released on X, Schiff expressed his excitement and full support for Harris's candidacy.
As a prominent ally of former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Schiff's endorsement carries significant weight within the Democratic Party. Pelosi, while praising President Joe Biden's decision to drop out of the race, has not yet publicly endorsed a replacement nominee.
It is worth noting that Schiff was one of the most vocal Democrats advocating for Biden to withdraw his candidacy. His endorsement of Harris signals a shift in support within the party as the 2024 presidential race begins to take shape.
