Oregon Gov. Kotek endorses Kamala Harris
for president: ‘Ready to unite the country.’

SALEM, Ore. — Late Monday morning Oregon Governor Tina
Kotek announced her endorsement of Kamala Harris as the 2024 presidential election Democratic candidate, following President
Joe Biden’s withdrawal from the race on Sunday.

“I am proud to endorse Vice President Kamala Harris for President. She’s tough, she’s smart and she’s ready to
unite the country. Kamala Harris should be our next
President," Kotek’s statement said.

“Donald Trump poses a clear and present danger to our country
and our world. That’s why it’s so important to defeat him in
November. Vice President Harris is the right person to lead
Democrats to victory in the upcoming election.”

In Los Angeles, California, Senator John F. Kennedy of
Massachusetts was nominated for the presidency by the
Democratic Party Convention, defeating Senator Lyndon
B. Johnson of Texas. The next day, Johnson was named
Kennedy’s running mate by a unanimous vote of the
convention.

Four months later, on November 8, Kennedy won 49.7
percent of the popular vote in one of the closest elections
for president in U.S. history, surpassing by a fraction the
49.6 percent received by Vice President Richard M. Nixon,
a Republican.

Fox News is told the consensus among most Democrats on the call
who suggested Biden should abandon the race was that the party
should focus on Vice President Kamala Harris as a potential
successor.
