Harris reportedly secures backing from enough delegates to become Democratic Party nominee | DW News

On the first full day of her campaign, US Vice President Kamala Harris has become the Democratic Party's presumptive nominee to replace President Joe Biden. She received pledges from enough delegates to win the Democratic nomination. The delegates, however, have not formally nominated Harris yet. Delegates will either take part in a virtual roll call to nominate Harris in the next few weeks, or they would formally vote for Harris during the Democratic National Convention from August 19 to 22 in Chicago.
