WASHINGTON (AP) — For the past year, the presidential campaign seemed destined to be a monotonous slog featuring two candidates, President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump, that voters didn't really want.
President Joe Biden raises the hand of Vice President Kamala Harris after viewing the Independence Day fireworks display over the National Mall from the balcony of the White House, Thursday, July 4, 2024, in Washington. She's already broken barriers, and now Harris could soon become the first Black woman to head a major party's presidential ticket after President Joe Biden's ended his reelection bid.
"It shakes things up entirely," said Dan Pfeiffer, a former adviser to President Barack Obama."It turns everything on its head." The shakeup in the presidential race came after an extraordinarily tumultuous month in American politics, starting with an unusually early debate between Biden and Trump.As Democrats pushed to dislodge him from the top of the ticket, Trump barely survived an assassination attempt on July 13 during a campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania.
In addition, Harris is a former prosecutor, providing a fresh opportunity to assail Trump's status as a convicted felon after being found guilty in a hush money trial earlier this year. The leaders of Trump's campaign dismissed the dramatic change, saying,"Kamala Harris is just as much of joke as Biden is."
