The Democratic Party aims to elect its US presidential candidate through online voting by August 7.
US Vice President Kamala Harris won enough delegate votes to become the Democratic Party’s presidential nominee. Associated Press reports.
The poll showed Harris with the support of 2,538 delegates, more than the 1,976 needed to win on the first ballot. None of the delegates named another candidate.
The media noted that after US President Joe Biden left the race, Harris’ campaign set a new 24-hour record for presidential donations. We are talking about $81 million per day.
The publication did not name Kamala Harris as the new presumptive nominee because convention delegates are still free to vote for the nominee at the convention in August or if Democrats hold a virtual roll call before that meeting in Chicago.
In a statement, Harris responded to the AP tally by saying he was grateful to Biden and everyone in the Democratic Party who had already shown confidence.
The Democratic Party aims to elect its US presidential candidate through online voting by August 7. However, the final date for the vote has not yet been set. This was reported by The New York Times in connection with the head of the Democratic National Committee, Jamie Harrison.
According to representatives of political forces who took part in the telephone conversation, a candidate for the position of vice president can also be nominated within the specified period. Most likely, the Democratic candidate will be incumbent Vice President Kamala Harris.
The publication added that the nomination of a presidential candidate through virtual voting will take place a few weeks before delegates gather in Chicago on August 19.
It should be noted that the possible US presidential candidate Kamala Harris, in a meeting at her headquarters on Monday, July 22, said how she would deal with her rival Donald Trump.
