Kamala Harris officially declares her candidature for US presidential polls: 'Will work hard to...'

US Vice President Kamala Harris officially declared her candidature for the presidential elections slated later this year as she signed the forms on Friday (July 26). She vowed to work hard “to earn every vote” while also exuding confidence that she will win the November 5 polls. She is up against former president and Republican candidate Donald Trump who has also thrown his hat into the ring for the third time. Harris took to X to announce her candidature and wrote, “Today, I signed the forms officially declaring my candidacy for President of the United States. I will work hard to earn every vote. And in November, our people-powered campaign will win”. Her candidature came after US President Joe Biden announced to withdraw from the race amid tremendous pressure from fellow Democrats to do so. He endorsed Harris as his successor who also gained endorsement from former president Barack Obama and his wife Michelle Obama in the race to the White House. Earlier on Friday, former US President Barack Obama publicly endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris for the US presidential post after Joe Biden exited the race recently. Obama said he and former US First Lady Michelle Obama will do everything they can to make sure Harris wins the presidential election in November. In a post on X, Barack Obama said, "Earlier this week, Michelle and I called our friend @KamalaHarris. We told her we think she'll make a fantastic President of the United States, and that she has our full support. At this critical moment for our country, we're going to do everything we can to make sure she wins in November. We hope you'll join us." Earlier on Wednesday, Actor and prominent Democratic fundraiser George Clooney publicly endorsed Harris for the US Presidential post. While addressing the nation from the Oval Office earlier this week, Biden thanked Kamala Harris, calling her a "great vice president." "She's experienced. She's tough, and she's capable. She's been an incredible partner to me and a leader for our country. Now the choice is up to you, the American people," Biden said. None
