Indian-origin California Senator Kamala Harris on Sunday endorsed Joe Biden for president, asserting that there is no one better prepared than him to steer America through “turbulent times” and she would do “everything” in her power to help elect the former US vice-president.
In less than a week, Harris on Sunday became the fourth Democratic presidential aspirant to support 77-year-old Biden in his third bid at the White House. The three others being Senator Amy Klobucher, former Mayor from Indiana Pete Buttigieg, and former New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg.
“There is no one better prepared than Joe to steer our nation through these turbulent times, and restore truth, honour, and decency to the Oval Office,” Harris said in a statement. “I believe in Joe Biden and will do everything in my power to help elect him the next president of the United States,” she said.
She had dropped out of the Democratic presidential race even before the start of the primaries. — PTI
