Vice President Camela Harris, who became the most prominent member of US presidential candidate Joe Biden on the 7th, is likely to open a new chapter in history as the first female Vice President of the United States. Find out who Harris is.
Camela Harris was born in 1964 and this year she is 56 years old. Born in Oakland, California, Western United States, daughter of an immigrant.
Camella Harris is black and Asian. My father was from Jamaica, where he was a professor of economics at Stanford University in the western United States, and his mother was a renowned cancer researcher from India.
The name ‘kamala’ means ‘lotus’ in Sanskrit, India.
But when her parents divorced when Kamala Harris was seven, she grew up with her mother and was influenced by her mother.
Camella Harris moved to Quebec, Canada with her mother at the age of 12, where she grew up until graduating from high school. Later, he returned to the United States to study political science at Howard University in Washington, DC, and graduated from UC Hastings School of Law.
Since 2004, she served as a city attorney for San Francisco, California, and in 2011, she became the first woman of color to become California Attorney General.
In 2014, I married Douglas Mhoff, a Jewish lawyer, at a relatively late age. Mr. Emhope is a new marriage and Kamala Harris is a first marriage.
Camela Harris first knocked on the door of politics in 2016 when she challenged the California State Senate. Here, Kamala Harris makes a fuss over the active congressman from the same Democratic Party.
Since then, Kamala Harris has been actively involved in legislative activities as a member of the Judiciary Committee and the Information Committee.
And last year, he officially ran for the Democratic Party’s presidential nominations. As the only woman of color among several Democratic nominees, Kamala Harris drew attention for her strong push against her rival Biden during the television debate.
However, after having trouble raising funds for the election, he ultimately declared a decline in December last year and later declared his support for Biden.
And at the Democratic National Congress in August, Democratic presidential candidate Biden nominated Kamala Harris as his running mate and vice presidential candidate.
This marks Harris as the third female vice-presidential candidate in US history and the first vice-presidential candidate of color in the United States.
With the success of the Biden-Harris team in securing a majority of the constituency on the 7th, Kamala Harris is expected to write the story of being the first female vice president in American history and the first vice president of color.
