WSJ says

WORLD  02 July 2024 - 12:42

In a recent analysis by The Wall Street Journal (WSJ), US Vice President Kamala Harris is identified as the most likely candidate to replace President Joe Biden should he decide to withdraw from the upcoming election race.

Despite her current political challenges and low approval ratings comparable to those of President Biden, Harris retains strong support among black voters and women, bolstering her candidacy, Caliber.Az reports.

A key advantage Harris holds over other potential Democratic contenders is her position as Biden's running mate, allowing her access to the funds he has raised for his re-election campaign. This financial backing would be crucial if she were to step into the race.

Furthermore, the WSJ highlights Harris' recent efforts to solidify her standing within the Biden administration. She has taken an active role in national security discussions, notably urging the White House to prioritize humanitarian issues in the Gaza Strip and to develop a comprehensive plan for post-conflict resolution in the region.

As the political landscape evolves, Harris' strategic positioning and the support she garners from key demographic groups place her at the forefront of potential successors to President Biden.
