Kamala Harris’ life as vice president took a 180-degree-turn in 24 hours, from her stumping for Joe Biden in Provincetown, an LGBTQ+ culture hub and haven, on Saturday, July 20, to becoming a potential presidential nominee on Sunday, July 21 when the news broke of Biden leaving the race.

There has been great excitement and renewed voter engagement since Vice President Kamala Harris rose to the top of the Democratic presidential ticket on July 21.

Vice President Kamala Harris has the vision, the intellect and the heart to lead a conversation about how to preserve American democracy. As a country, we are still struggling to make this “A more perfect union.”

On Tuesday, August 6, Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris chose Tim Walz, the present governor of Minnesota, as her VP running mate.

Monique Poydras was at a reggae concert at a vineyard in Linganore, Maryland, when her phone began vibrating frantically. As text after text and call after call rolled in, the device continued to shake until it eventually fell off the chair.
