    Given how Harris was chosen, I’m really not sure this is the year to make that argument.

      It was Biden/Harris. He stepped down, but that doesn’t suddenly mean that she has to. And with the way the rules around succession and such are worded, especially campaign finance, she was the only choice. Because she was already the VP nominee.

      But most importantly, Biden stepped down for the good of the country, and Harris has stepped up.
