Harris Ticks Up a Quarter of a Point After Record Fundraising Numbers

Vice President Kamala Harris has seen her odds move up a quarter of a point to +175 as she appears to be on her way to becoming the Democratic nominee for president of the United States.

Former U.S. president and Republican nominee Donald Trump remained at -200 odds.

President Joe Biden dropped out of the 2024 race for the White House on Sunday, ending his bid for reelection after a disastrous debate with Donald Trump that raised doubts about the incumbent’s fitness for office. The unprecedented announcement, delivered less than four months before the election, immediately upended a campaign that both political parties view as the most consequential in generations.

The president — intent on serving out the remainder of his term in office — quickly endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris to take on Trump and encouraged his party to unite behind her, making her the party’s instant favorite for the nomination at its August convention in Chicago.

AP survey shows Kamala Harris backed by enough delegates to become the Democratic nominee.

Several state delegations met late Monday to confirm their support for Harris, including Texas and her home state of California. By Monday night, Harris had the support of well more than the 1,976 delegates she’ll need to win on a first ballot, according to the AP tally. No other candidate was named by a delegate contacted by the AP.
