DETROIT (Michigan News Source) – It’s official: Vice President Kamala Harris secured enough votes from Democratic delegates to become the party’s presidential nominee.
The news comes after delegates voted virtually to approve Harris instead of waiting for the party’s official nominating convention later this month in Chicago. In July, President Joe Biden announced he would not run for reelection.

Harris’ previously scheduled Michigan campaign stop for this week will now cover two days. In addition to her previously scheduled Wednesday night rally in Detroit, Harris will attend an unspecified campaign event on Thursday.
Michigan and its 15 electoral votes make it a key battleground state in the Nov. 5 election.
