VP Kamala Harris Wins Democratic Delegate Support

Kamala Harris

United States Vice President Kamala Harris has exceeded the required level of support from delegates, securing her the Democratic presidential candidacy.

An unofficial Associated Press Democratic Delegate survey indicates that Harris has now gotten pledges from 2,668 delegates at the time of publication.

The outcomes place her as the most likely Democratic Party candidate, challenging Republican nominee Donald Trump. The delegates who initially backed Harris will still have to formally register their ballots in the next few weeks and are supposed to name an official nominee by Aug. 7.

Tonight, I am proud to have secured the broad support needed to become our party’s nominee… I look forward to formally accepting the nomination soonHarris remarked in a statement.

Following his abrupt decision to resign from the election campaign on July 21, present President Joe Biden endorsed Harris.

Bill and Hillary Clinton, as well as House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, backed her, therefore dispelling rumors that Hillary might have been considering running once more as a presidential candidate. Harris’s support comes in line with worries about Joe Biden’s health following his announcement that he contracted COVID-19.

According to Biden’s doctor, on July 22, his symptoms were “almost resolved completely.”

While Donald Trump has taken a firm position on Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies—vowing to defend US Bitcoin miners and stop the Biden administration’s “war on crypto“—in June, Harris has not made any strong comments on digital assets. Still, Harris is a native of California who has been identified as among the more tech-savvy Democrats rising to prominence recently.

Key to a Harris nomination and how it affects crypto will be who she chooses as running mate—political analysts pin Pete Buttigieg, Josh Shapiro, JB Pritzker, and Gavin Newsom as possible vice presidential contenders. None of these possible candidates show strong opinions on digital or cryptographic assets.

Whether Harris’s crypto policy would differ significantly from the present Biden administration’s is yet unknown.
