It's about to be official. DNC roll call begins to make Kamala Harris nominee

It’s about to be official.

Democrats will begin a virtual roll call on Thursday to vote Vice President Kamala Harris as the party’s presumptive presidential nominee.

The roll call vote will begin Thursday at 9 a.m. ET. Delegates have until the deadline on Monday, Aug. 5 at 6 p.m. ET to return their ballots.

Harris skyrocketed to the top of the ticket after President Joe Biden dropped out of the 2024 presidential race on July 21. Pressure had grown from concerned Democratic leaders that the president could no longer beat his Republican rival, former President Donald Trump.
