In a unanimous decision, all 20 members of the North Carolina Senate Democratic Caucus have endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris for President, following President Joe Biden’s announcement that he will not seek re-election.

Vice President Harris brings a wealth of experience from her tenure as a District Attorney, Attorney General, U.S. Senator, and Vice President. Her leadership and qualifications make her an exemplary choice to continue the progress made under President Biden’s administration.

“No one is better qualified or better prepared than Vice President Harris to prosecute the case against Donald Trump,” stated Senator Dan Blue, the Democratic Leader of the North Carolina Senate. “I am confident that Vice President Harris’s leadership will defeat Donald Trump and the MAGA Republicans up and down the ballot this November.”

Vice President Harris has been a steadfast advocate for reproductive freedom, justice, and democracy, mobilizing key constituencies within the Democratic coalition. Her candidacy offers a clear and compelling alternative to Donald Trump, aligning with the values and goals of the Democratic Party.

The North Carolina Senate Democratic Caucus stands united behind Kamala Harris, ready to support her in continuing the legacy of progress and resilience championed by President Biden.
