A coalition of Nikki Haley voters pledged their support for Kamala Harris’ presidential bid.
Hours after Joe Biden dropped out of the 2024 presidential race and endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris, the PAC Haley Voters for Biden has now endorsed Kamala Harris’ presidential run.
Craig Snyder, the director of teh PAC stated that they believe Kamala Harris “is best suited to defeat Donald Trump in November.”
Snyder continued, “A tough former prosecutor, the Vice President comes from the centrist wing of the Democratic Party, not its leftmost fringe…For Haley voters, all of this puts the Vice President in a sweet spot for them to register their ongoing opposition to President Trump,”

Here’s what Newsweek reported:
A coalition of former Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley voters pledged their support for Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris’ presidential bid on Sunday, hours after President Joe Biden announced that he was dropping out of the race.
Biden announced on Sunday afternoon in a letter that he will not be seeking a second term in this year’s presidential election and threw his support behind Harris. The president’s decision follows weeks of mounting pressure from people within his own party and from key Democratic donors urging him to step aside for the sake of the party’s future after a disastrous debate performance last month against former President Donald Trump.
ADVERTISEMENTThe political action committee (PAC), previously known as Haley Voters for Biden, which now features Harris’ name, seeks to amplify the voices of former Haley voters in support of Harris’ White House bid.
Craig Snyder, the group’s director, told Newsweek in an email on Sunday afternoon that the organization believes Harris “is best suited to defeat Donald Trump in November.”
“A tough former prosecutor, the Vice President comes from the centrist wing of the Democratic Party, not it’s left most fringe…For Haley voters, all of this puts the Vice President in a sweet spot for them to register their ongoing opposition to [former] President Trump,” he said.

Per Reuters:
Many Democrats on Sunday quickly backed Vice President Kamala Harris to run as the party’s presidential nominee against Donald Trump after President Joe Biden’s abrupt departure from the race, but some powerful party members, including former House of Representatives Speaker Nancy Pelosi, stayed quiet.
After weeks of fighting among Democrats on whether Biden, 81, should stay in the race, a rush of support coalescing behind Harris, if she is to be the nominee, is crucial with just over 100 days before the November election.
But there are plenty of doubts inside the Democratic Party about whether Harris can beat Trump, the Republican nominee and former president. Some Democrats have suggested the party should hold a mini-primary before the August convention.

The Never Trumpers never give up. And they’re worse than the Democrat party of treason because these snakes are in our tent.https://t.co/kG3VQ6Scb4
