Hart’s review has concluded that Vice President Kamala Harris will have enough pledged delegates to still be nominated for president by the Democratic Party.
The party never wanted more Democratic voters from Harris, who this time dropped out of her 2020 presidential campaign before the voting ever actually started.
However, more than the 1,976 delegates required for nomination were reported to have endorsed Harris by The Associated Press.
Harris jumped into the race last Sunday after President Joe Biden announced he would not seek re-election while falling ever further behind former President Donald Trump in surveys.
The nomination will become official after delegates – none of whom are bound to Harris – cast their votes during the first week of August.
Harris took over her campaign on Monday after Biden dropped out and said she would work to unify the Democratic Party.
“As many of you know, before I was elected as vice president, before I was elected as United States senator, I was the elected attorney general, as I’ve mentioned, of California, and before that I was a courtroom prosecutor. In those roles, I took on perpetrators of all kinds,” Harris said. “Predators who abused women. Fraudsters who ripped off consumers. Cheaters who broke the rules for their own game. So hear me when I say I know Donald Trump’s type.”
Harris participated in a call with U.S. mayors on Wednesday, where Biden joined mid-call to say he would be campaigning for Harris.
Since Biden has officially dropped out of the 2024 presidential race, many are calling for him to resign from his current presidential term over worries of his cognitive ability.
