What happens in the Democratic nomination now that Biden has left the race

CNN  

A version of this story appears in CNN’s What Matters newsletter. CNN — President Joe Biden’s decision not to run for reelection creates a unique situation for Democrats and Democratic voters in which the person who won party primaries is no longer the party’s candidate. As of Monday evening, Harris had the support of enough Democratic delegates to win the party’s nomination, according to CNN’s delegate estimate, although the endorsements are not binding. The Democratic Party is moving forward with a process that will determine the party’s presidential nominee by August 7, weeks before the convention gets underway, party officials said Monday night. According to DNC officials and a document obtained by CNN, candidates will need to declare their interest in becoming the Democratic Party’s nominee for president by filing a formal declaration of candidacy, meeting party and legal qualifications to be president, and gathering at least 300 delegate signatures from convention delegates, with no more than 50 from a single state.
