Pelosi Endorses Harris Amidst Widespread Support

Vice President Kamala Harris has garnered widespread support from Democratic lawmakers and party leaders across multiple states after President Joe Biden announced his withdrawal from the presidential race. States including Washington, Kansas, Wisconsin, and New Jersey have unified in endorsing Harris, with endorsements from prominent figures like Gov. Tony Evers, Sen. Cory Booker, and Gov. Phil Murphy. Harris has seen significant financial backing, with record-breaking fundraising numbers following Biden's exit. Despite this, some key Democrats, such as former President Barack Obama and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, have yet to endorse her. Harris is vetting several potential running mates, excluding Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear. There remains a noticeable enthusiasm gap that Harris needs to address, particularly among young voters and minorities, as she prepares for the upcoming Democratic National Convention and the general election.
