In a significant shift in the US political landscape, Vice President Kamala Harris has secured enough pledged delegates to become the Democratic presidential nominee for the upcoming election. This news follows the withdrawal of President Joe Biden from the reelection race, a decision that came after weeks of internal party struggles and declining support in polls. Biden's endorsement of Harris just 36 hours before her nomination was confirmed marked a swift transition within the Democratic party.
Harris, who previously served as the Attorney General of California and the District Attorney of San Francisco, has now officially taken on the mantle of leading the Democratic ticket. Her campaign will be focused on uniting the party and taking on Republican challenger Donald Trump. Harris has already outlined her campaign strategy, highlighting her past experience in confronting “predators” and “fraudsters” as a prosecutor, suggesting a focus on law and order issues.
The upcoming campaign will be a battleground of major significance, with Wisconsin being one of the key states targeted by both parties. Harris's first campaign appearance as the presidential nominee will take place in Wisconsin on Tuesday. Her focus on this state reflects its crucial role in the upcoming election and underlines the Democrats’ commitment to mobilizing voters in traditionally tight districts.
