After President Joe Biden withdrew from the 2024 presidential race this afternoon, Rep. Bonnie Watson Coleman (D-Ewing) has endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris to replace him at the top of the Democratic ticket.

“The Congresswoman fully supports President Biden’s endorsement of Vice President Kamala Harris as his nominee for president,” a spokesperson for Watson Coleman told the New Jersey Globe. “She looks forward to working extraordinarily hard to ensure a victory against the greatest threat to our democracy, Donald Trump.”

Watson Coleman is the second New Jersey congressman to publicly endorse Harris, following Rep. Andy Kim (D-Moorestown), who is this year’s Democratic nominee for U.S. Senate. Biden himself has also endorsed Harris, giving her a huge leg up in the still-unclear process of choosing his replacement.

Watson Coleman also praised Biden’s decision to step down as a presidential candidate.

“President Biden’s decision to step aside is a selfless act of patriotism, putting the need to defend democracy above his own personal ambition,” she said earlier today. “It is a stunning act of selflessness that is so often missing from today’s politics. Thank you for all you have done for our country, President Biden.”
