Washington: About 8 in 10 Democrats are satisfied with Kamala Harris as the nominee for the US Presidential polls slated to be held later this year, survey conducted by AP-NORC stated.
Kamala Harris Bidding To Break ‘California Curse’
She can become the first female president and the first woman of color with both Indian and Jamaican heritage. Additionally, she would be the first Democrat to win the presidency from a strong political base in California.
As the history indicates, there is little noticeable gains for Democrat politicians who have established their careers in Washington while running for the US presidency.In reality, California has indeed produced a number of successful high-level politicians, but until now, they have all been men and Republicans. Midwesterners generally have no issue with Californians—as long as those Californians are conservative.
Democrats in California Back Kamala Harris
According to an Associated Press survey, Vice President Kamala Harris has secured the support of enough Democratic delegates to become her party’s nominee against Republican Donald Trump as top Democrats rallied to her in the aftermath of President Joe Biden’s decision to drop his bid for reelection.
Prominent Democratic elected officials, party leaders and political organizations quickly lined up behind Harris in the day after Biden’s exit from the race and her campaign set a new 24-hour record for presidential donations on Monday.
What Survey Suggests
Several state delegations met late Monday to confirm their support for Harris, including Texas and her home state of California. By Monday night, Harris had the support of well more than the 1,976 delegates she’ll need to win on a first ballot, according to the AP survey. No other candidate was named by a delegate contacted, its survey mentioned.
A survey indicates that Kamala Harris has garnered sufficient support from Democratic delegates to secure her party’s nomination to run against Donald Trump. However, this survey is unofficial, and delegates are free to vote for their preferred candidate during the party’s nomination process. According to current party rules, a candidate must have the backing of 1,976 delegates on the first ballot to win the nomination.
As less than 100 days are left until the elections, polls over the past week have shown Harris and Trump essentially tied, setting the stage for a close-fought campaign for the US presidency elections scheduled to be held later this year.
