FEATURING AIMEE ALLISON - After weeks of internal and external pressure, President Joe Biden dropped out of the 2024 presidential race last weekend and endorsed his Vice President, Kamala Harris for the Democratic Party nomination. Harris quickly received enough delegate pledges to become the likely nominee at the Democratic National Convention in August. Her campaign announced it raised a record breaking $100 million in donations in just days. In 2020 Harris became the first woman and the first woman of color to ever be Vice President. If elected this November, her Presidency would be equally ground breaking on the issue of demographic representation.
