He previously served 12 years in Congress, representing a conservative-leaning rural district.

This district has been largely dominated by Republicans before and after his term.

Harris was officially announced last night as the Democratic Party’s candidate for the presidency of the United States.

Today she officially revealed the name of the vice presidential candidate who will accompany her in the elections on November 5.

She won 99% of the votes of the 4,567 Democratic Party delegates in a referendum.

Harris will be the first Black woman to run for President of the United States.

She will compete against former Republican President Donald Trump.

Harris had already secured the support of a sufficient number of Democratic delegates last Friday.

She now chose her running mate without the need for a vote within the Democratic party.
