Vice President Harris would be President Joe Biden’s natural successor if he bowed to pressure
WASHINGTON – She worries Republican donors, has name recognition, and Democratic Party heavyweights are beginning to line up behind her.
Her 3-1/2 year White House tenure has been characterized by a lackluster start, staff turnover, and early policy portfolios including migration from Central America that did not produce major successes. It also found independents back Harris 43%-40% over Trump, and moderate voters of both parties prefer her 51-39%.
Influential Democrats including U.S. Representative Jim Clyburn, who was key to Biden's 2020 win; Rep. Gregory Meeks, a New York congressman and senior member of the Congressional Black Caucus; and Summer Lee, a House Democrat from Pennsylvania have signaled Harris would be the best option to lead the ticket if Biden chooses to step aside.
And some on Wall Street, an important Democratic fundraising center, are starting to indicate a preference. Democratic and Republican suburban women may also be more comfortable with her then Trump or Biden, he said. If the party were then to choose another candidate over Harris, some Democrats say it could lose the support of many Black voters who were critical to Biden's election win in 2020.
Harris would take over money raised by the Biden campaign and inherit campaign infrastructure, a critical advantage with just four months before election day on Nov. 5. However, Biden's campaign raised a record $48 million in the 24 hours after he named Harris as his running mate in 2020.
