US president, Joe Biden, has said “he couldn’t be prouder” after Vice President Kamala Harris emerged as the Democratic Party’s presidential nominee.
Harris effectively secured the nomination Friday.
She will now face off with Republican Donald Trump during November elections.
In the two weeks since Biden ended his re-election bid, Harris has smashed fundraising records, packed arenas and erased the polling leads Trump had built over the president.
“I couldn’t be prouder,” Biden posted on X after her nomination.
Harris has become the first Black and South Asian woman ever to secure a major party’s nomination.
The 59-year-old will be officially crowned at a Chicago convention later this month.
