“President Biden made a selfless and heroic decision,” said DNC Committeewoman Brenda Knapp, “I’m all behind Vice President Harris and anxious to move forward with formal selection of her as the Democratic presidential nominee. I’m also heartened that Joe Biden will continue serving as our nation’s President through the end of his term.”

“I fully support Vice President Harris and know she is the most capable candidate of defeating Trump, earning the Party’s nomination, and uniting Democratic voters,” said Party Vice Chair Jessica Cook, “She is a proven leader.”

“President Biden is the best President we’ve had during my lifetime and did a phenomenal job in bringing our nation back together after Jan 6, 2021. Under he and Vice President Kamala Harris’s leadership, we’ve seen the largest infrastructure investments desperately needed in our state, job growth, unprecedented support for Unions, and policies enacted so that all Alaskans thrive,” said Alaska Democratic Party Chair and Alaska National Delegation Chair Mike Wenstrup, “Our country needs to unite behind the Democratic nominee and she can deliver that.

A vote for her is a vote for a country where all Americans can live without fear of persecution. It’s a vote for democracy and against Project 2025. The values of the Democratic Party and the legacy of the Biden Administration will continue to prosper with her.”

Earlier today, leaders of State Parties across the country convened as members of Association of State Democratic Committees to consider a formal endorsement of Vice President Kamala Harris as the Democratic nominee. The endorsement passed with the voting members of the Alaska Democratic Party (Chair Mike Wenstrup, Vice Chair Jessica Cook, and Executive Director Lindsay Kavanaugh) casting their votes in support.
