How the Nomination Happened
Harris’s rise to the top of the Democratic ticket happened with remarkable speed after President Joe Biden announced he would step aside from his re-election campaign.

Following that endorsement, Democratic leaders quickly rallied behind Harris. Support poured in from:
Progressive activists
Moderate Democratic governors
