Former Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr. selected Senator Kamala D. Harris of California to join his presidential ticket. Harris is the third woman to be selected for the role in American history. In this episode, I discuss the electoral impact (if any) of Harris joining the ticket, its implications, and what Biden/Harris need to do in order to be successful in the election. The next major events of the 2020 campaign include the nominating conventions. The first, the 2020 Democratic National Convention, will be held next week. It remains to be seen if Harris can help effectively campaign for Biden and win over undecided voters as well as recreating the Obama coalition in order to defeat President Trump.
