Maryland Governor Wes Moore endorses Kamala Harris for Democratic nominee
BALTIMORE -- Maryland Governor Wes Moore has endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris as the Democratic nominee after President Joe Biden announced that he was dropping out of the Presidential race.
"The American people deserve a champion who will continue the progress of the Biden-Harris Administration, and that's why I am proud to voice my full support and offer my full endorsement to Vice President Kamala Harris to be the Democratic nominee for President."
He's been a firm supporter of President Biden throughout this process, serving on a national advisory board for the campaign, even as other Democrats ramped up pressure on Biden to consider dropping out.
In a statement yesterday, he thanked President Biden for his dedication to the country and Maryland during his term.
Moore pointed to his frequent partnership with the White House, highlighting infrastructure investment, job growth, and most notably, support in the wake of the Francis Scott Key Bridge collapse.
On CBS' Face the Nation last month, Moore said he would not pursue the Democratic nomination for president if Biden were to step aside and remained firm in standing behind him.
