Joe Biden wants to pass the baton to Kamala Harris. Here’s how that might work

Associated Press  

ATLANTA — With President Joe Biden ending his reelection bid and endorsing Vice President Kamala Harris, Democrats now must navigate a shift that is unprecedented this late in an election year. Given how important Black voters -– and Black women especially -– were to Biden’s nomination and his choice of Harris as running mate, it would be risky, to say the least, for Democrats to pass her over for a white nominee. Democrats could even go forward with their plans for an early virtual vote – a move they’d planned to make sure Biden was selected ahead of Ohio’s general election ballot deadline. Campaign finance experts agree generally that Harris could control all those funds since the campaign was set up in her name as well as Biden’s.
