Presidential candidate Joe Biden has named senator Kamala Harris as his Vice President running mate. Harris has made history, becoming the first black South Asian American woman to be nominated for the role. With an impressive record backing LGBTQ+ policy, the Californian Democrat senator has quickly became a popular choice as Biden’s running mate, even landing a Twitter endorsement than no other than Taylor Swift. There’s no questions about it, standing as a potential VP with a strong allyship with the queer community definitely puts Biden in a favourable position with future voters. Senator Harris, 55, dropped out of the presidential race last year after failing to make headway in her bid to win the Democratic nomination.
