Clintons Endorse Kamala Harris to Be Democrats’ Nominee for President

Former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton posted a statement on social media on Sunday afternoon endorsing Vice President Kamala Harris to take President Biden’s place as the party’s nominee for November.

“We are honored to join the President in endorsing Vice President Harris and will do whatever we can to support her,” they wrote in the statement, which was posted within 90 minutes of Mr. Biden announcing that he would leave the race and back Ms. Harris as his replacement in the race against former President Donald J. Trump.

“We’ve lived through many ups and downs,” the Clintons said, “but nothing has made us more worried for our country than the threat posed by a second Trump term.”
