Following Biden’s announcement that he is ending his reelection bid Sunday, Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer has endorsed Kamala Harris to be the Democrat nominee for president. Whitmer was one of those speculated to be waiting in the wings to be nominated at an open convention.

"Today, I am fired up to endorse Kamala Harris for President of the United States. I Vice President Harris, Michigan voters have a presidential candidate they can count on to focus on lowering their costs restoring their freedoms, bringing jobs and supply chains back home from overseas, and building an economy that works for working people," Whitmer said in a statement.

"She’s a former prosecutor, a champion for reproductive freedom, and I know that she’s got Michigan’s back. "That’s in stark contrast to Donald Trump, a convicted felon who stokes violence, overturned Roe, attacked our auto industry which hardworking families depend on, left office after losing 100,000 manufacturing jobs, and drove our economy into the ground last time he was in the White House."

"Vice President Harris has my full support," Whitmer concluded. "So Michigan, let’s get to work. We cannot let Donald Trump anywhere near the White House. Let’s go!"

In a Sunday post to X, Biden announced, "while it has been my intention to seek reelection, I believe it is in the best interest of my party and the country for me to stand down and to focus solely on fulfilling my duties as President for the remainder of my term." He endorsed Harris for president in a follow-up post.

Announcing her campaign, Harris said she was "honored" to have Biden's endorsement, adding that "my intention is to earn and win this nomination. Over the past year, I have traveled across the country, talking with Americans about the clear choice in this momentous election. And that is what I will continue to do in the days and weeks ahead. I will do everything in my power to unite the Democratic Party—and unite our nation—to defeat Donald Trump and his extreme Project 2025 agenda. We have 107 days until Election Day. Together, we will fight. And together, we will win."
