Joe Biden and his campaign team have been considering dropping out of the race for reelection for a few days now, and for that reason, they commissioned several polls to measure how Vice President Kamala Harris could fare in a potential contest against Donald Trump, as revealed by the New York Times a few days ago.

And the results revealed that Harris is a better opponent than Biden, something that polls have shown on other occasions, according to the same source.

"The Biden campaign is quietly testing the strength of Vice President Kamala Harris against the former president," said to the prestigious New York Times.

According to information from Politico.com, Harris could beat Trump in a key state like Pennsylvania.

Kamala Harris as presidential candidate

Several Democrats consider Harris, 59, as a fully qualified person to assume the nomination for the elections, because she has all the possibilities of defeating Trump.

When he dropped out of the race, Joe Biden gave Kamala Harris his full support.

Kamala Harris could win back the young and African American voters that Biden has lost and would reconnect with the Democratic community. A New York Times poll gives Harris a 16-point lead over Trump in the 18 to 29 age group.

Among the allies there are several black Democrats who have openly supported Harris: "I think she has performed well," said Reverend Al Sharpton, who also added that, although he continues to support Biden, Harris should not be ignored. "She has always been good. I think she is simply better. And I think she is better than any of the names that have been mentioned."

Harris is the first woman, the first Black person, and the first person of Asian descent to hold the position of vice president in the history of the United States. A recent campaign tour allowed her to highlight key elements of the Biden coalition, focusing on her personal story rather than the disputes among Democrats about the party's future.

On August 19th, the Democratic National Convention will begin to choose the presidential candidate.
