US Vice President Kamala Harris on Monday cemented her status as the frontrunner in the race to succeed President Joe Biden as the Democratic Party’s nominee for the November presidential election, winning a wave of endorsements from governors, elected officials and state-level leaders.
The most important among those endorsements was Biden’s ringing support for her candidature, which he made clear right as he announced, on Sunday, that he would no longer be seeking the party’s nomination, following weeks of pressure to step aside.
