The US Democratic Party has adopted new rules, according to which the political power chooses its presidential candidate. This will make it possible to nominate the American Vice President Kamala Harris in the near future.

Points of attention

  • The Democratic Party has implemented new rules for the nomination of Kamala Harris for the US presidency, streamlining the process with electronic voting by delegates.
  • Delegates are required to submit their signatures by July 30, ahead of the Democratic convention scheduled to take place in Chicago from August 19 to 22.
  • Kamala Harris is actively campaigning, focusing on values of freedom and criticizing the previous administration, as she aims to secure the nomination.
  • The new rules aim to avoid potential lawsuits by determining the candidate for president and vice president by August 7 through electronic ballots sent out during the Democratic convention.
  • CNN reports that the Democratic National Convention in Chicago will involve ceremonial voting for presidential and vice-presidential candidates, along with approval of the pre-election program, as Democrats 'bet' on Harris.

Democrats are "betting" on Harris

The new rules call for the nominee to be chosen by electronic ballots sent to delegates at the Democratic convention.

It is noted that the vote will probably take place on August 1, but the exact date will depend on the number of applicants. It will be announced by the Democratic National Committee.

At the same time, it is emphasized that thanks to electronic voting, the candidate for president and vice president of the United States from the party will be determined by August 7, in order to avoid possible lawsuits about access to the ballots in Ohio.

According to the approved rules, candidates from the Democratic Party must announce it by July 27, after which they must submit the signatures of at least 300 delegates, but no more than 50 from one state, by July 30.

When the Democratic Party nominates its candidate for president, the rules will allow the name of the vice president to be announced without the need for additional remote voting.

CNN emphasizes that the Democratic National Convention will be held in Chicago on August 19-22. Ceremonial voting for presidential and vice-presidential candidates will take place there. The pre-election program will also be approved then.
