Democrats Rally Behind Kamala Harris as Majority of Pledged Delegates Endorse Her: NBC News
Headline: Kamala Harris Secures Majority of Democratic Delegates’ Endorsements
In a significant development for the Democratic presidential race, Vice President Kamala Harris has garnered endorsements from a majority of the party’s pledged convention delegates, according to estimates by NBC News. With the threshold number of delegates set at 1,976, Harris has received support from groups representing 1,992 delegates as of the latest count.
Harris, who recently compared her election rival Donald Trump to "predators" and "cheaters," has been making waves with her fiery speeches and strong stance against the former U.S. leader. Her campaign received a major boost with the endorsement of key figures like former President Joe Biden, who recently dropped out of the race and threw his support behind Harris.
The exact dates and process for the Democratic party’s nominating roll call vote are set to be finalized at a meeting of the Rules Committee. With Harris gaining momentum and support from various quarters, the race for the Democratic nomination is heating up, setting the stage for a compelling showdown in the upcoming election.
