Kamala Harris officially confirmed as the Democratic Party's presidential candidate

U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris was officially confirmed as the Democratic Party's presidential candidate for the upcoming November elections.

The confirmation ceremony took place at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago, which was broadcast by MSNBC.

More than 4,000 delegates from across the country participated in the event.

The procedure to confirm Harris's candidacy occurred after a second vote, which was organized to announce the results in a ceremonial setting.

Earlier, in early August, during a virtual roll-call vote, Kamala Harris had already received the majority support of the delegates.

At the time of the convention, Harris was in Milwaukee, where she was meeting with voters.

In her address to the delegates, she expressed gratitude for their support and emphasized that her campaign is built on the backing of people who seek change.

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer also spoke at the convention, expressing confidence that Harris will secure victory in the upcoming elections and that the Democratic Party will maintain its influence in the Senate, demonstrating strong results in November.

It is worth noting that Joe Biden radically changed the U.S. election campaign. After prolonged resistance and pressure from members of the Democratic Party, he decided to withdraw from the presidential race, expressing support for his Vice President, Kamala Harris, as the candidate.

This move by Biden was an unexpected blow to the Republicans' strategy, who had focused their criticism on the sitting president. Now, they are forced to adapt their campaign to new conditions.

Despite the lingering uncertainty, it is clear that the party quickly consolidated around Kamala Harris. Talk of her nomination began after Biden's unsuccessful debates with Trump in late June, although Harris remained loyal to her leader until the end.
