President Biden’s decision to exit the presidential race has positioned Vice President Kamala Harris as a front-runner for the Democratic nomination.
Harris’s candidacy comes with a mixed bag of strengths and weaknesses, including her experience and controversial public image.
As the Democratic National Convention looms, Harris’s political record and popularity ratings will face heightened scrutiny.
Nevertheless, her supporters emphasize her effective advocacy for the administration and notable achievements, such as her leadership in addressing the migration crisis at the southern border.
