View In AppIn Chicago, at the ongoing Democratic National Convention, Kamala Harris is set to receive the nomination for President tomorrow. To rally votes, Kamala Harris's sister, Maya Harris, has also entered the campaign scene. The excitement over the presidential election in Chicago has intensified. The Democratic National Convention has clarified that Kamala Harris will now compete against Republican Party’s Donald Trump, and preparations for this contest have begun. To garner support for Kamala, her sister Maya Harris has also taken to the field, reaching out to the Asian American community with enthusiasm and energy for victory. An event was organized to raise funds for Kamala Harris’s campaign, which saw a large turnout of Asian-American participants. Supporters stated, 'We support the Democrats, especially this time as Kamala Harris’s mother is from Chennai, and there is excitement because Kamala Harris is of Indian descent. The Indian-American community is highly motivated, with at least five million Indian-Americans enthusiastic about the nomination of the first Indian-American, first Asian-American, and first Black woman on Thursday.'
In the Democratic National Convention, which involves delegates from all 50 states totaling 4,750, Kamala Harris needs 2,376 delegate votes to become the presidential nominee, a milestone that seems within reach. This is the same United Center where the Democratic Party nominated Bill Clinton for his second term in 1996, and Clinton won that election. On Tuesday, the baton was passed to Kamala Harris. However, will she be able to repeat history? The campaign, initially expected to be Biden vs. Trump, has now shifted to Harris vs. Trump, indicating a new direction.
