Who has endorsed Harris?
A number of Democratic lawmakers, governors and past leaders were quick to rally behind Vice President Harris as she pursues the Democratic Party’s presidential nomination following President Biden’s withdrawal from the race.
Shortly after dropping out of the presidential race, Biden endorsed Harris as his successor, stating it is “time to come together and beat” former President Trump.
Harris later said she was “honored” to receive Biden’s backing, and she intends to “earn and win this nomination.”
She has remained mum on her vice presidential pick, with several potnetial contenders already voicing their support for her campaign.
