The historic endorsement came after Biden announced Sunday that he is dropping out of the race following weeks of disarray within the Democratic Party.
My very first decision as the party nominee in 2020 was to pick Kamala Harris as my Vice President.
Despite the president’s backing, it remains unclear whether Harris will become the nominee, or what process the Democratic Party would take to select an alternative.
Dmitri Mehlhorn, a Democratic political strategist advising several big-money backers, released a statement Sunday following Biden’s withdrawal supporting Harris.
After she dropped out, Harris became a prominent surrogate for Biden before being named his vice presidential pick in August 2020.
