  选举2024更新:哈里斯说,她打算寻求总统提名

  她说:“他非凡的成就遗产在现代美国历史上是无与伦比的,超过了许多连任两届的总统的遗产。”

  哈里斯获得了一波支持

  拜登在退出竞选的声明中支持哈里斯,表示他“完全支持和认可”她成为民主党的总统候选人。

  在7月11日的新闻发布会上,拜登还暗示他相信哈里斯的领导能力,当时他说:“除非我认为她有资格成为总统,否则我不会选择她。”

  在…里7月11日公布的一项民意调查显示在问及哈里斯是否会取代拜登成为提名人时,哈里斯-唐纳德·特朗普在所有成年人中的支持率为49-46%(在注册选民中的支持率分别为49-47%)。调查发现,哈里斯的49%略高于拜登的46%,尽管她在统计上没有明显领先于特朗普。

  前总统比尔·克林顿和前总统候选人、国务卿希拉里·克林顿周日也支持哈里斯。

  “我们很荣幸与总统一起支持副总统哈里斯,并将尽我们所能支持她,”两人在x的一份声明中说。

  在参议院,哈里斯已经得到了来自以下方面的支持:

  参议员Mazie Hirono,D-夏威夷;弗吉尼亚州民主党参议员蒂姆·凯恩;弗吉尼亚州民主党参议员马克·华纳;明尼苏达州参议员蒂娜·史密斯;华盛顿参议员帕蒂·默里。;马萨诸塞州参议员伊丽莎白·沃伦。;马萨诸塞州参议员埃德·马基。;康涅狄格州民主党参议员克里斯·墨菲;加利福尼亚州民主党参议员拉蓬扎·巴特勒;明尼苏达州民主党参议员艾米·克洛布查尔;民主党参议员克里斯·库恩斯。;亚利桑那州参议员马克·凯利和加利福尼亚州参议员帕迪拉

  哈里斯在周日的声明中继续说道:“作为他的副总统,我深感荣幸,我深深地感谢总统、[第一夫人][吉尔]拜登博士以及整个拜登家族。我第一次认识拜登总统是通过他的儿子博。我们在一起工作时是朋友,都是各自州的司法部长。我们一起工作时,博会给我讲他爸爸的故事。他是怎样的父亲,怎样的人。博在他父亲身上受到尊敬的品质,同样的价值观,我在乔作为总统的每一天都看到了:他的诚实和正直。他博大的胸怀和对信仰和家庭的承诺。以及他对我们国家和美国人民的爱。”

  前证券交易委员会。约翰·克里全力支持哈里斯,在X上书写“为了民主、联盟、经济公平和我们星球的未来,现在是时候倾听唯一一个击败唐纳德·特朗普的人的声音,并与拜登总统一起尽一切努力让副总统哈里斯成为下一任美国总统。任何有良知的公民都不应袖手旁观。”

  宾夕法尼亚州州长乔希·夏皮罗也支持哈里斯,称她是“值得我们支持的爱国者”

  “我认识卡玛拉·哈里斯已经将近20年了——我们都是检察官,我们都支持法治,我们都为人民而战并取得了成果。卡玛拉·哈里斯是一位值得我们支持的爱国者,她将继续我们之前的几代美国人的工作,完善我们的联邦,保护我们的民主,推进真正的自由。夏皮罗在他的声明中说:“作为副总统,她光荣地为国家服务,她已经做好了当总统的准备。”。

  “民主党前进的最佳道路是迅速团结在副总统哈里斯身后,重新专注于赢得总统大选,”他继续说。“这场竞选中的对比再清楚不过了,11月的胜利之路正好穿过宾夕法尼亚州——这是集体努力的起点。我将尽我所能帮助卡玛拉·哈里斯当选美国第47任总统。”

  几位知名人士没有立即支持哈里斯

  尽管一些民主党人士表示支持,但其他人周日没有立即支持哈里斯。

  前总统奥巴马在拜登退出的声明中没有提到哈里斯。相反,他重点讲述了他在白宫与拜登副总统共事的经历:“16年前,当我开始寻找副总统时,我知道乔在公共服务领域的非凡生涯。但我更钦佩的是他的性格——他深切的同理心和来之不易的韧性;他的基本正派和每个人都很重要的信念,”奥巴马在一份声明中说。

  纽约州民主党参议员科里·布克在关于拜登退出的声明中也没有提到哈里斯。

  “我不能夸大拜登总统刚刚作出的崇高和历史性决定的严重性。我现在的感觉是深深的感激,”布克说。

  德克萨斯州众议员劳埃德·道格特(Lloyd Doggett)是第一个呼吁拜登在总统竞选中让位的众议院民主党人,早在7月2日,他就对拜登的决定表示赞赏,但对支持哈里斯表示了反对。

  “拜登总统再一次为美国赢得了胜利,以唐纳德·特朗普永远无法做到的方式将国家置于自我之上,”道吉特说,部分原因。

  他补充说,“虽然,在拜登总统的支持下,副总统哈里斯显然是领先的候选人,但我们应该对所有希望被考虑的有才华的人开放。”

  一些捐助者表示兴奋

  一些之前计划停止竞选捐款的民主党捐款人周日告诉美国广播公司新闻,他们现在很高兴能够将他们的支持集中在副总统哈里斯周围,即使她不是他们取代乔·拜登的首选

  “我不认为党内围绕提名的激烈斗争会有所帮助。如果拜登支持哈里斯,那么我认为这基本上就决定了,”一名捐款人说,他最初承诺向拜登捐款180多万美元,后来因为担心拜登作为提名人的可行性而停止了捐款。

  作为对拜登决定退出竞选并支持哈里斯的回应,这位捐助者说,他们现在计划恢复他们对哈里斯的认捐。

  “我刚刚给鲁弗斯·吉福德发了短信,”这位捐赠者说,他指的是拜登-哈里斯竞选财务主席。“我告诉他我全押了。”

  另一位捐助者——她最初说她打算停止捐款,更喜欢一个公开的会议——告诉美国广播公司新闻,在拜登退出和支持后,她现在完全支持哈里斯。

  “我确信,我们100%的人都会支持她,”这位捐赠者说,她以前在自己的家里为拜登举行过一次筹款活动。"正如我们所说的,一些人正在整理他们的资金转移信息."

  与其他民主党政治家相比,一些接受美国广播公司新闻采访的捐助者对哈里斯并不热情,包括加利福尼亚州州长加文·纽瑟姆和密歇根州州长格雷琴·惠特默,但他们认为哈里斯是必然的候选人。

  “我看不出任何其他认真的候选人会在这一点上站出来说,我正在与哈里斯竞争提名,”另一位民主党捐助者说。

  Harris thanks Biden as she receives growing chorus of endorsements

  Vice President Kamala Harris thanked President Joe Biden for his leadership following the news Sunday that hewill not continue his bid for reelection.

  Her statement comes amid a growing chorus of endorsements for her candidacy in the 2024 presidential race.

  "On behalf of the American people, I thank Joe Biden for his extraordinary leadership as president of the United States and for his decades of service to our country," she said in a statement released Sunday.

  Watch the ABC News special, "Biden Stands Down: The Race for the White House," tonight from 7-9 p.m. ET on ABC and ABC News Live.

  Election 2024 updates: Harris says she intends to seek nomination for president

  "His remarkable legacy of accomplishment is unmatched in modern American history, surpassing the legacy of many presidents who have served two terms in office," she said.

  Harris garners wave of endorsements

  Biden endorsed Harris in his statement on his exiting the race, offering his "full support and endorsement" for her to be the Democratic Party's presidential nominee.

  At a July 11 press conference, Biden also hinted at his belief in Harris' ability to lead, saying at the time: "I wouldn't have picked her unless I thought she was qualified to be president."

  Ina poll released July 11, asking if Harris were to replace Biden as the nominee, vote choices were 49-46%, Harris-Donald Trump, among all adults (and 49-47%, respectively, among registered voters). Harris' 49% was slightly better than Biden's 46%, although she doesn't have a statistically significant lead over Trump, the poll found.

  Former President Bill Clinton and former presidential candidate and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton also endorsed Harris on Sunday.

  "We are honored to join the president in endorsing Vice President Harris and will do whatever we can to support her," the two said in a statement on X.

  In the House, Harris has received endorsements so far from:

  Rep. Jamal Bowman, D-N.Y.; Rep. Pramila Jayapal, D-Wash.; Rep. Ami Bera, D-Calif.; Rep. Eric Swalwell, D-Calif.; Rep. Joaquin Castro, D-Texas; Rep. Salud Carbajal, D-Calif.; Rep. Dan Kildee, D-Mich.; Rep. Haley Stevens, D-Mich.; Rep. Cori Bush, D-Mo.; Rep. Rosa DeLauro, D-Conn.; Rep. Maxwell Frost, D-Fla.; Rep. Frederica Wilson, D-Fla.; Rep. Susie Lee, D-Nev.; Rep. John Garamendi, D-Calif.; Rep. Hank Johnson, D-Ga.; Rep. Gwen Moore, D-Wis.; Rep. Sean Casten, D-Ill.; Rep. Ritchie Torres, D-N.Y.; Rep. Jim Clyburn, D-S.C.; Rep. Debbie Dingell, D-Mich.; Rep. Bobby Scott, D-Va.; Rep. Don Beyer, D-Va., and Rep. Suzanne Bonamici, D-Ore. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., Ilhan Omar, D-Min., Ayanna Pressley, D-Mass., Delia Ramirez, D-Ill., Greg Casar, D-TX, Summer Lee, D-Penn., Cori Bush, D-MO.

  Several House reps reacted to Harris' nomination Sunday, issuing statements of support and thanking Biden for his decision to step down.

  "Kamala Harris will be the next President of the United States. I pledge my full support to ensure her victory in November. Now more than ever, it is crucial that our party and country swiftly unite to defeat Donald Trump and the threat to American democracy. Let’s get to work," Ocasio-Cortez said in a statement.

  Ilhan Omar wrote on X, "Thank you, Mr. President. This was the president’s decision to make and I’m grateful for his years of service to our country. Thrilled to support @KamalaHarris as our Democratic nominee and remain committed to working alongside her to defeat Donald Trump in November."

  Ayanna Pressley wrote on X, "Thank you for your dedicated service President @JoeBiden. And @KamalaHarris. I’m all in, let’s go. #BlackWomenLead."

  Delia Ramirez wrote, "We must defeat Donald Trump. VP @KamalaHarris is the proven, qualified leader ready to move our country forward. She has my endorsement. I look forward to working with her to realize a permanent ceasefire, immigration reform, and a bold agenda that centers working families."

  Greg Casar, D-TX, posted "I am ready to elect @KamalaHarris as President. Together we can defeat Trump in November — and together we can raise wages for workers, restore abortion rights, win a lasting ceasefire in Gaza, and preserve our democracy for generations to come."

  Jamaal Bowman wrote "Now that President Biden has suspended his campaign, Vice President Kamala Harris is the most qualified and best choice to lead us forward."

  In the Senate, Harris has received endorsements so far from:

  Sen. Mazie Hirono, D-Hawaii; Sen. Tim Kaine, D-Va.; Sen. Mark Warner, D-Va.; Sen. Tina Smith, D-Minn.; Sen. Patty Murray, D-Wash.; Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass.; Sen. Ed Markey, D- Mass.; Sen. Chris Murphy, D-Conn.; Sen. Laphonza Butler, D-Calif.; Sen. Amy Klobuchar, D-Minn.; Sen. Chris Coons, D-Del.; Sen. Mark Kelly, D-Ariz., and Sen. Alex Padilla, D-Calif.

  In her statement Sunday, Harris continued, "It is a profound honor to serve as his vice president, and I am deeply grateful to the president, [first lady] Dr. [Jill] Biden, and the entire Biden family. I first came to know President Biden through his son Beau. We were friends from our days working together as attorneys general of our home states. As we worked together, Beau would tell me stories about his dad. The kind of father -- and the kind of man -- he was. And the qualities Beau revered in his father are the same qualities, the same values, I have seen every single day in Joe's leadership as president: His honesty and integrity. His big heart and commitment to his faith and his family. And his love of our country and the American people."

  Former Sec. of State John Kerry threw his weight behind Harris,writing on X, "For democracy, alliances, economic fairness, and the future of our planet, now is the time to listen to the only person who has ever beaten Donald Trump, and join with President Biden in every effort to make Vice President Harris the next President of the United States. No citizen of good conscience should stay on the sidelines."

  Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro also backed Harris, calling her a "patriot worthy of our support."

  "I've known Kamala Harris for nearly two decades – we’ve both been prosecutors, we've both stood up for the rule of law, we've both fought for the people and delivered results. Kamala Harris is a patriot worthy of our support and she will continue the work of generations of Americans who came before us to perfect our union, protect our democracy, and advance real freedom. She has served the country honorably as Vice President and she is ready to be President," Shapiro said in his statement.

  "The best path forward for the Democratic Party is to quickly unite behind Vice President Harris and refocus on winning the presidency," he continued. "The contrast in this race could not be clearer and the road to victory in November runs right through Pennsylvania – where this collective work began. I will do everything I can to help elect Kamala Harris as the 47th President of the United States."

  Several notable figures abstain from immediately endorsing Harris

  Despite the wave of support from some Democratic figures, others did not immediately endorse Harris on Sunday.

  Former President Barack Obama did not mention Harris in his statement on Biden's exit. Instead, he focused on his experience in the White House with Biden as his vice president: "Sixteen years ago, when I began my search for a vice president, I knew about Joe's remarkable career in public service. But what I came to admire even more was his character  --  his deep empathy and hard-earned resilience; his fundamental decency and belief that everyone counts," Obama said in a statement.

  Sen. Cory Booker, D-N.Y., also did not mention Harris in his statement on Biden's exit.

  "I cannot overstate the gravity of the noble and history-making decision that President Biden just made. The feeling that I have right now is one of profound gratitude," Booker said.

  Texas Rep. Lloyd Doggett, who was the first House Democrat to call on Biden to step aside in the presidential race, back on July 2, applauded Biden's decision but put the breaks on endorsing Harris.

  "Once again President Biden comes through for America, putting country over ego in a way that Donald Trump never could," Doggett said, in part.

  He added, "While, with President Biden's endorsement, Vice President Harris is clearly the leading candidate, we should be open to all talented individuals who wish to be considered."

  Some donors express excitement

  Some Democratic donors who previously planned to withhold their campaign contributions told ABC News on Sunday that they are now excited to coalesce their support around Vice President Harris, even if she was not their first pick to replace Joe Biden at the top of the ticket

  "I don't think that having some kind of bitter inner party fight over the nomination is going to help. If Biden is endorsing Harris, then I think that basically decides it," said one donor who initially pledged to contribute more than $1.8 million to Biden before withholding their contribution over concerns about Biden's viability as the nominee.

  Reacting to Biden's decision to drop out of the race and endorse Harris, that same donor said they now plan to resume their pledged contribution to Harris.

  "I just texted Rufus Gifford," the donor said, referring to the Biden-Harris campaign finance chair. "I told him I'm all in."

  Another donor -- who originally said that she planned to withhold her contribution and preferred an open convention -- told ABC News that she now fully supports Harris following Biden's withdrawal and endorsement.

  "I am convinced that 100% of us will get behind her," said the donor, who previously held a fundraiser for Biden in her home. "Some people are getting their funds transfer information organized as we speak."

  Some of the donors who spoke with ABC News were not enthusiastic about Harris compared to other Democratic politicians -- including California Gov. Gavin Newsom and Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer -- but described Harris as the inevitable nominee.

  "I can't see how any other serious candidate could come out at this point and say, I'm running for the nomination against Harris," another Democratic donor said.
