This year’s election is claimed to be one of the most important ones our country has had. As a result, Kamala Harris is faced with on-the-spot questions about Joe Biden and requests for him to step out of the election.
According to a recent CNN article, “Whether Biden steps aside or – as he has insisted for nearly two weeks – remains the Democratic nominee, Harris has been under increased pressure to clearly articulate the significance of this year’s election, draw distinctions between the Biden administration and Trump, and defend the ticket from Republican attacks. The vice president’s efforts to reach minority voters and other key constituencies has become critical.”
With so much on the line, it is apparent that Harris has a full plate. Many are wondering if Biden should be running for President, and Harris is receiving the tail-end of these rumors and questions.
Many people are relying on Harris for answers and updates about the Biden administration, and her hard work has not gone unnoticed. “I think there’s a strong team. I think you’ve got Biden, but you also have a really strong vice president, and I’m glad that the world is discovering her now,” says a co-founder of Black Voters Matter.
Whether or not Biden steps out, people are comfortable with Harris stepping up. It is hard to tell now, but if polls show that his physical and mental state isn’t sitting well with his base of voters nationally, he will be faced with pressure to end his run.
There have also been rumors about Governor Gavin Newsom taking over if this does happen. It leaves people at a crossroads to decide who would be a better fit: Kamala Harris or Gavin Newsom?
There have been many rumors throughout the election process that are difficult to articulate. All questions will be answered with time.
