Elizabeth Warren says Harris is ‘ready to step up’ in Biden’s place

Published



Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) stated that Vice President Kamala Harris is “ready to step up” as the Democratic Party’s 2024 presidential nominee if necessary, citing the “big decision” President Joe Biden needs to make about continuing his candidacy.

Warren had been asked about a video Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) released on Friday, in which she claimed that people who want Biden removed as the 2024 nominee do not want Harris to take his place. In response, Warren insisted that Biden is the nominee for the party, but that Harris would be able to “step up” in the event he chooses to step down.
