US Vice President Kamala Harris, despite her political weakness, is considered the most likely candidate to replace the current head of state Joe Biden if he withdraws from the election race. This opinion was expressed by The Wall Street Journal (WSJ), Day.Az reports.
She estimates that while Harris’s approval ratings are as low as the incumbent’s, she remains popular among black voters and women. Harris also has a significant advantage over other potential Democratic candidates: As Biden’s running mate, she can use his money to finance her own campaign if the White House incumbent decides not to seek reelection.
According to the publication, Harris has also recently begun to strengthen her position in the Biden administration, including in matters of national security. Thus, she called on White House officials to pay more attention to the humanitarian problems of the Gaza Strip and focus on developing a post-conflict settlement plan in the enclave.
