DNC virtual roll call vote ends with Kamala Harris receiving 99% of delegate votes.
SUMMARY
In a virtual roll call vote, Vice President Kamala Harris secured 99% of delegate votes, solidifying her as the Democratic nominee for the 2024 presidential election. The Democratic National Committee (DNC) announced the results, which will be certified by the convention's secretary, Jason Rae, at the upcoming Democratic National Convention in Chicago on August 19th. Harris, who launched her campaign after President Biden withdrew from the race, easily met the threshold of 2,350 delegate votes out of over 4,000. She has not yet announced her running mate but is expected to do so soon, having vetted several contenders from key battleground states.
