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.

    The delegates/DNC are responsible here, not the media. If they’re all going to support Harris without any debate, the media can’t be faulted for reporting it.

    I agree with the sentiment though. Harris has a lot of problems on her record and couldn’t even make it to Iowa in 2020. That she has enough connections to get picked as VP anyway doesn’t mean she has to be the default nominee.
