WASHINGTON - Vice President Kamala Harris is the top alternative to replace US President Joe Biden if he decides not to continue his reelection campaign, according to seven senior sources at the Biden campaign, the White House and the Democratic National Committee with knowledge of current discussions on the topic.
US Vice President Kamala Harris speaks during the Constitutional Convention of UNITE HERE, the nation's largest hospitality workers' labour union, in New York City, US, on June 21, 2024.
In a Reuters/Ipsos poll published Tuesday , Harris trailed Trump by one percentage point at 42 per cent to 43 per cent, a difference that was well within the poll's 3.5 percentage point margin of error, a showing statistically just as strong as Biden's. Harris's aides dismissed any talk of a Democratic ticket that doesn't include both Biden and Harris. "Vice President Harris looks forward to serving a second term with President Joe Biden," a statement from her office said.
"People may have dreams of another superhero but there is a process and the last time I checked it's a Biden-Harris ticket, she's number two on the ticket," Brazile said, adding Biden remains the nominee for the Democratic party and "is not going anywhere."
