First black woman candidate
Kamala Harris will become the first black woman presidential candidate on a major party ticket in US history. “I’m proud to be the Democratic nominee for President of the United States,” Kamala Harris said in a tweet on social media platform X after receiving enough votes to run. I will officially accept the nomination next week. This campaign is about people who are inspired by the love of the country and come together to fight for their best.
Required votes to be obtained in two days
The nomination process for Kamala Harris was rushed after the re-election of President Joe Biden. Delegates to the Democratic National Convention began voting Thursday via secure email, which will remain open until Monday evening, but Harris won enough votes for a majority in just two days. Harris has not yet chosen his running mate for vice president. He is expected to interview the candidates later in the week. Official nominations are expected to be finalized by August 7.
