Good evening everyone from Washington DC. I'm Michael Steele in for Chris Hayes today.

So Vice President Kamla Harris won the vote of enough delegates to secure the Democratic nomination

just less than two weeks after President Joe Biden's decision to step down.

She joined a campaign call to thank her supporters.

I am honored to be the presumptive

Democratic nominee for President of the United States.

Later this month we will gather in Chicago united as one party where we're going to have

an opportunity to celebrate this historic moment together.

So here's the bottom line.

I say to all the friends on the call, we are going to win this election.

The Democratic National Committee's virtual roll call vote will continue until Monday when Harris will

officially become the nominee. President Biden offered his support

as well writing quote one of the best decisions I've made was picking Kamala Harris as my vice president.

Now that she will be our party's nominee I couldn't be prouder. Let's win this.

So in a very short time this race has been completely remade.

The enthusiasm about the new nominee is very clear, particularly in the Harris

campaign's record-breaking fundraising.

Today they announced a $310 million, I said a million dollar hall

just in the month of July,

with more than 3 million people making over 4.2 million contributions.

That made July the largest grassroots fundraising month in Democratic history, meaning this has never

happened before.
