Presumptive Democrat nominee Kamala Harris continues to
campaign for president, as Donald Trump returns to the campaign trail too
New polling shows Harris pulling Black voters and young people
away from former president Trump, but Black Lives Matter is not happy with the
way Harris got the nomination
Black Lives Matter, the organization that was born in Oakland, has put
out a statement denouncing the Democratic Party for anointing Harris as Biden’s
replacement, calling it a “blatant” and “unacceptable” disregard for democratic
principles, and calling for a virtual snap primary instead to choose the new
Democratic Party nominee. BLM says while it was no big fan of President Biden,
the way he was bullied out of the race by elite donors and party bigwigs was
troubling and undemocratic.
