Harris, a former Senator from California, served under Biden for the last 3.5 years. She is the first female vice president in U.S. history, and the first African-American and first Asian-American VP. During Biden바카라 게임 웹사이트™s administration, she has taken a leading role in immigration and women바카라 게임 웹사이트™s health issues.

Biden cannot unilaterally pick the next nominee. That will be up to the delegates and superdelegates at the Democratic National Convention.

Other reported candidates are Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg, California Gov. Gavin 온라인 바카라 게임om, Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker, Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer and Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro.
