President Biden selected her to serve by his side because he knew she could lead the nation. She will have the unique ability to energize the Democratic Party base and mobile a unique coalition, and we must rally around her and elect her to serve as the next President of the United States.
Moore’s endorsement of Harris comes as other Democrats such as Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), Gov. Josh Shapiro (D-PA), former President Bill Clinton, and his wife, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) have also endorsed Harris to be the party’s presidential nominee.
