In a significant political development, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries have publicly endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris for the Democratic presidential nomination.
This announcement comes just days after President Joe Biden withdrew his bid for reelection on Sunday, citing concerns over his physical and mental stamina to endure the rigors of a challenging race against Republican contender Donald Trump.
Expressing her determination, Harris conveyed to Schumer her desire to earn the nomination independently. With a clear show of unanimity, the majority of Democratic Party delegates have committed to backing Harris in the upcoming roll call vote in August.
