Congratulations to our presumptive Democratic nominee, Joe Biden!
Democratic Primaries
In reply to the discussion: Harris's former press secretary: Biden's announcement he'll pick female VP was tactically brilliant [View all]lastlib
(24,396 posts)27. California is a Dem-leaning state with a Dem Governor.
Harris' replacement would certainly be a Dem, so the seat is safe.
And as presiding officer in the Senate, Harris would still be there, as would Warren.
The question would be, would either of these women bring enough voters to the Dems to swing states away from tRump and kick his fat a** out, or would someone else (eg, Klobuchar) bring more?
Much to consider!
