Biden Withdraws from 2024 Race, Endorses Harris

In a significant political shift, President Joe Biden announced his withdrawal from the 2024 presidential race, citing the best interests of the Democratic Party and the nation. Following a poor debate performance in June and mounting pressure, Biden endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris as the Democratic nominee. While Biden's voluntary exit was necessary due to his delegate majority, the final decision now rests with the delegates. It's uncertain if Harris will face any challengers for the nomination. On Sunday evening, Democrats had raised upwards of $45 million in donations following the announcement. The Democratic faithful are ordering Kamala Harris yard signs and signing up to volunteer to support this fresh new candidate.
