Thiruvaarur (Tamil Nadu) [India], July 22 (ANI): A special pooja was held at the family temple in the ancestral village of Kamala Harris in Thulasendrapuram in Tamil Nadu’s Tiruvarur district today to invoke blessings for her upcoming presidential election in the United States.
After pulling out of the US Presidential election, Joe Biden endorsed Kamala Harris as the Democratic Party’s Presidential nominee.
Thulasendrapuram has become excited again after Kamala Harris’ name was announced as the presidential candidate for the US election.
The village’s Shri Dharmasastha Temple has a unique wall where the names of people who have made contributions to the temple are etched in Tamil, and the Democratic Presidential candidate for the 2025 US election, Harris, is also one of them.
Speaking with the media, the villagers said they are proud of Kamala Harris and they are praying for her in the US Presidential elections.
A woman, who came to offer her prayers at the temple in Thulasendrapuram while speaking with ANI said, “We are so happy that she is being nominated. And we support Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. We wish her all the very best and good luck to her. We wish her victory.”
Meanwhile, Vice President Kamala Harris swiftly moved to secure support for her White House bid shortly after President Joe Biden announced his decision not to seek re-election, The Hill reported.
On Sunday, Harris engaged with key figures on Capitol Hill, including Rep Pramila Jayapal (D-Wash) of the Congressional Progressive Caucus, Rep Nanette Barragan (D-Calif) of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus, and Rep Ann McLane Kuster (D-NH) of the New Democrat Coalition, all of whom have already endorsed her candidature.
Harris also connected with Rep. Mark Pocan (D-Wis.), who enthusiastically shared on social media platform X, “She is ready to win in Wisconsin!!!”
In response to Biden’s endorsement, Harris expressed gratitude, stating in a released statement, “I am honoured to have the President’s endorsement, and my intention is to earn and win this nomination.”
Sources familiar with Harris’s plans indicate she will maintain an aggressive travel schedule, consistent with her recent campaign efforts. Major Democratic PACs, including the AAPI Victory Fund, the Collective PAC, and the Latino Victory Fund, also endorsed Harris on Sunday, signalling a broadening coalition of support. The infrastructure of the Biden campaign is swiftly pivoting to bolster Harris’s efforts. (ANI)
