Harris Secures Enough Delegates To Clinch Democratic Nomination

By Monday night, Harris secured 2,668 delegates at the Democratic National Convention in August. Only 56 delegates remain uncommitted, according to the informal count.

Vice President Kamala Harris has secured verbal agreements from enough delegates to win the nomination, according to a survey conducted by the Associated Press.

By Monday night, Harris secured 2,668 delegates at the Democratic National Convention in August. Only 56 delegates remain uncommitted, according to the informal count.

The announcement came after dozens of state delegations began endorsing the vice president on Monday, pushing her expected delegate count far ahead of the 1,976 needed to secure the nomination.

However, these delegates are not locked-in to voting for Harris, and formal voting for the Democratic nominee will not take place until Aug. 1.

DNC plans to have nominee by Aug. 7, use virtual roll call ahead of convention
BY ALEX GANGITANO - 07/22/24 7:30 PM ET

The Democratic National Committee (DNC) announced Monday that it will move forward with a virtual roll call and that it plans to have a presidential nominee by Aug. 7.

The DNC will use an electronic voting system for delegates to vote for candidates for the nomination who meets three criteria — file formal declaration of candidacy with the committee, meet the party and legal qualifications to be president, and gather a minimum of at least 300 delegates with no more than 50 delegates from one state.

Hmmm, four years ago she couldn't even secure ONE delegate.

She must be some awesome VP....

One thing you can count on with Democrats, they are loyal to the party.

Best I can tell, Harris has *verbal* pledges from enough delegates to get her the Donks nomination. Meaning, they can back out and vote for someone else.

Dems Convention is August 20th or so.
BUT by remote electronic voting by their delegates, the Dems say their Presidential nominee will be chosen by August 7th.

So the Obama/Pelosi/Cabal plan seems to be to get Harris nominated and out campaigning ASAP. As the Dems turn on their mass media machine to full blast. As they remake this dancing imbecile into a heroic genius.

So, the Rats have until the 20th to plan the Kim Jong-Il “World Peace Ceremony”. Maybe they will get Arrec Barwin to speak.

Just need to pretend that pedojoe is still breathing until then so that Harris can't be POTUS even for a day, and thereby, the presumptive choice.

We are going to see deep fakes, the likes the world has never seen.

Harris was born here from two non-citizens. They were legal residents. Green card holders or here on student visas. Father from Jamaica and mother from India.

She does not qualify to be a US President. Her case is worse than Obama’s, as far as being a natural born citizen.

“She does not qualify to be a US President. Her case is worse than Obama’s, as far as being a natural born citizen.“

And we have MANY, MANY Republican lawmakers who should be representing us - and forcing the Constitution on them..

We are being taxed to death - but not represented at ALL.

The Jackass party should change their favorite phrase “Our Democracy” to “Our Autocracy”.
