US Vice President Kamala Harris says that she is “honored” to have been endorsed by President Joe Biden as he stepped down from the presidential race, and vows that it is her “intention to earn and win this nomination.”
“I will do everything in my power to unite the Democratic Party and unite our nation — to defeat Donald Trump,” she adds.
She says that Biden’s “selfless and patriotic act” is a reflection of his long career, as he is “putting the American people and our country above everything else.”
“We have 107 days until election day. Together we will fight. And together we will win,” she says.
