Description
Delegates representing Washington voters at the Democratic National Convention said they’re excited about the direction of the party’s Presidential ticket, following Sunday's announcement President Joe Biden will not seek re-election.
“You're seeing kind of this energy within the Democratic Party that we haven't seen, you know, candidly, for months, “ said state Senator Joe Nguyen, D-White Center, one of the state’s 92 elected delegates heading to the party’s convention in Chicago next month.
Nguyen said delegates are excited, even though the party has not finalized its ticket.
Nguyen, who has previously participated in fundraisers with Vice President Kamala Harris, endorsed Harris on Sunday.
“I’m a big fan,” said Nguyen, who hopes Harris is atop the party's ticket.
