This weekend marks 100 days until Election Day. The Harris for President Campaign is launching a ‘100 Days Out Weekend of Action’ with a packed schedule of over thirty events from Pensacola to Miami happening from Friday through Sunday.
The events will hold voter outreach, coalition building, and other events across Florida to harness this enthusiasm and show everyone that Florida is in play. The campaign has the infrastructure on the ground to reach voters, talk about issues important to them, and listen to their concerns. With 100 days before the election and an extremely close race, every day counts. As far
Latest Fundraising Numbers and Surge of Support
According to the campaign, ever since President Biden selflessly stepped aside, enthusiasm for Vice President Kamala Harris has been high. Across the country, volunteers are offering their time including in critical battleground states, and Americans have broken fundraising records as a broad coalition comes together to support VP Harris by donating over $81 million in one day, with 60% of the 880,000 donors giving for the first time this election. This signals strong enthusiasm to stop the Trump/Vance campaign and their extremist Project 2025 agenda.
Vice President Harris has a strong support system in Florida
“Florida Democrats are fired up and ready to elect Kamala Harris this November,” said Chair Nikki Fried. “As Vice President, she’s been on the frontlines of the fight for the soul of our nation, and I know that she’s ready to continue the work she started with President Biden four years ago. I’m proud to give her my full endorsement for President of the United States, and look forward to electing her this November.”
Members of Congress have also announced their support in interviews as well as on social media. Below are just a few.
- Congressman Maxwell Frost: “I am proud to endorse Vice President @KamalaHarris to be President of the United States. Let’s get to work to defeat Trump and reject fascism.”
- Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick: “I have been an avid supporter of President Biden and his administration since the beginning of this campaign. And today, my unwavering stance remains unchanged. I fully stand behind President Biden’s decision to endorse Vice President Kamala Harris as the new Democratic nominee. She is undoubtedly the only candidate who is well-equipped to beat Donald Trump and lead our country as the next president. #HarrisforPresident #Onward #ContinuingTheFight #SCM”
- Frederica Wilson: “Kamala Harris has served as an extraordinary Vice President, has been part of this history making administration, and will make history as the first Black woman to hold the Presidency. She is more than qualified to be President, having served as Vice President, U.S. Senator, California’s Attorney General, and District Attorney of San Francisco. She is tested, ready and I’m proud to stand with our next President of the United States.”
- Debbie Wasserman Schultz: President @JoeBiden put his country first, and passed the torch he carried to his battle tested and trusted Vice President, @KamalaHarris. She’s just what our nation needs: someone with character, experience and integrity, who fought side-by-side with one of America’s most successful presidents. Vice President Harris can continue the unparalleled success of the current White House, and lead America away from a return to the deadly, chaotic and immoral gutter that Trump tried to drag America into. She offers voters a clear contrast as a former prosecutor who put bad guys in prison and held cheating corporations accountable, compared to a convicted felon, con man and adjudicated rapist who would inflict his extreme MAGA Project 2025 policies on our democracy, seniors, veterans, women and workers. She has my full endorsement.
- Lois Frankel: As we approach the most consequential election of our lifetime, I am proud to support Vice President Kamala Harris as the Democratic nominee for President. With her strength, experience, and leadership, we can build on the progress we’ve made the last four years, bring costs down further, protect reproductive freedom, and defeat Donald Trump’s extreme Project 2025 agenda this November.
State Senate
- Shevrin Jones: “President Joe Biden is the greatest president of our lifetime. The nation is forever indebted and grateful for his years of service. It’s time for Democrats to unite in support of Vice President @KamalaHarris. She has my full support as the leader needed to meet this moment and defeat Donald Trump. The Trump-Vance ticket is dead-set on taking away Americans’ rights, destroying democracy, and doing the bidding of greedy corporations price gouging working families. Together, we can beat this threat and continue moving America forward.”
State House
- Fentrice Driskell: Thank you @JoeBiden for your incredible service to our country. @KamalaHarris – Can’t wait to call you POTUS. Folks, we have an election to win – let’s do this!
- Michele Rayner: I am profoundly grateful for President Joe Biden’s years of dedicated service. His decision today to step down and endorse Vice President Kamala Harris as the next presidential nominee is not only appropriate but essential. This is not about the other candidate for President. You can’t compare where you don’t compete. Vice President Harris’s extensive experience as District Attorney, Attorney General, U.S. Senator, and Vice President during pivotal moments in our generation underscores her deep qualifications to serve as President. She embodies the intersectionality of our nation and reflects our shared experiences. Vice President Harris is not only ready to serve our country as President, but she also possesses the most extensive experience to do so. As a Democratic delegate, State House Representative, a Link and Sister Greek, and a Black Queer woman in America, I am energized and fully committed to supporting Vice President Kamala Devi Harris.
- Ashley Gantt: I am 1908% in with you Madam Soror Vice-President!!!!
- Lindsay Cross: Thank you Pres Biden. Bc of you, America is stronger than ever. You pulled us out of the pandemic, diverted a recession & made historic investments in American People. I’m excited to support @VP as our champion to fight MAGA extremism & dangerous policies that threaten democracy.
- Daryl Campbell: Vice President Harris has proven herself as a leader and shown the American people that she is worthy of being the leader of the free world.
