Biden quickly endorsed Harris to be the party’s presidential nominee after dropping from the race Sunday afternoon. He said that selecting Harris to be his vice president was “the best decision I’ve made” and “it’s time to come together” behind Harris to beat Trump.
The Democratic National Committee has not yet laid out how it would proceed with the nominating process. DNC Chair Jaime Harrison that the party would “undertake a transparent and orderly process” that is “governed by established rules and procedures of the Party.” Passion Jackson, a delegate from Dallas, said she felt “really sad” for Biden. Harris is “the best person we can put forward,” Jackson said, but she was also worried about Harris facing misogyny during the election.Julio Salinas, a delegate from Austin, said he would prefer to have some discussion about the new nominee before the DNC.
She added that she doesn’t anticipate other Democrats will seek the nomination. “I just don’t think anybody wants to,” she said.
