Harris secures enough delegate endorsements to win the Democratic presidential nomination - eviltoast

Kamala Harris has the support of enough Democratic delegates to win the party’s nomination for president, according to CNN’s delegate estimate.

While endorsements from delegates continue to come in, the vice president has now been backed by well more than the 1,976 pledged delegates she’ll need to win the nomination on the first ballot.

Harris crossed the threshold amid a wave of endorsements from state delegations Monday evening.

    Leave the determination until the fucking convention.

    Under normal circumstances I would agree but in this case there’s a dangerously abbreviated timeline involved. There simply isn’t enough runway left for a candidate to take flight if they spend the next month dithering around in confusion.
