Here's what's next for WA's Democratic Party delegates as Harris seeks the nomination

Washington’s 111-person delegation to the Democratic National Convention will meet Thursday to consider endorsing Vice President Kamala Harris to replace President Joe Biden as the party’s presidential nominee.

If it does, as expected, it will join counterparts from a growing list of states – including Tennessee, South Carolina, North Carolina, New Hampshire and Florida. Delegates around the country are coalescing swiftly behind Harris after Biden stepped aside over the weekend.

“There is a joy in the Democratic Party that I have not felt in over a decade,” said Bill Phillips of Terra Firma Consulting and a former Snohomish County Democratic Party chair. “It’s genuine.”

Even so, the state’s delegation may not be unanimous when it comes time to vote.
