Vice President Harris addressed the crowd without directly mentioning Biden, emphasizing the election’s significance. “This is probably the most significant election of our lifetime,” Harris said on stage. “In 122 days, we each have the power to decide what kind of country we want to live in.”
Democrats and Black voters alike grappled with party loyalty and representation complexities. Fox59 reported that many Democrats view Vice President Harris as more suitable than white governors such as California’s Gavin Newsom or Michigan’s Gretchen Whitmer. Antjuan Seawright, a Democratic consultant, warned that bypassing Harris for president if Biden steps down would be “malpractice” and potentially divisive for the party. Rep. Joyce Beatty rallied support for the current administration, declaring, “We got a Black vice president of the United States of America, a sister who came here to be with us today…So, let’s not get it twisted. I know who I’m voting for. I’m with the Biden-Harris team because we’re still going to have a sister in the White House fighting for us and making a difference.”
