Prominent Democrats, including former President Barack Obama, are rallying behind Kamala Harris as she positions herself as the Democratic candidate for the 2024 US presidential election against Donald Trump. This support comes in the wake of Joe Biden's withdrawal from the race, giving Harris a significant opportunity to lead the party. Obama, while not yet publicly endorsing her, is expected to join her campaign soon, offering strategic advice and support.
As Harris's campaign gains momentum, Trump's campaign has filed a complaint with the Federal Election Commission, alleging that she is attempting to unlawfully access campaign funds. Trump's campaign lawyer described this as a 'brazen money grab' that could represent a significant violation of election laws. Despite this legal challenge, experts believe Harris is entitled to the funds due to her position on the presidential ticket.
