U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris has the support of enough Democratic delegates to win the party’s nomination for president, according to CNN.No serious challenger has emerged yet after U.S. President Joe Biden announced his exit from the race. The Harris campaign also said it raised $81 million in the first 24 hours, calling it a “historic outpouring of support,” CNN adds. “Tonight, I am proud to have secured the broad support needed to become our party’s nominee, and as a daughter of California, I am proud that my home state’s delegation helped put our campaign over the top. I look forward to formally accepting the nomination soon,” she wrote in a statement sent by her campaign. Harris pledged to bring the fight to Donald Trump. “Over the next few months, I will be traveling across the country talking to Americans about everything that is on the line. I fully intend to unite our party, unite our nation, and defeat Donald Trump in November,” CNN reports her saying ahead of her first campaign rally for her new bid to beat the former president.
