This is the best summary I could come up with:

Shortly after Biden stepped aside he firmly endorsed Harris, who would make history as the nation’s first Black and South Asian woman to become a major party’s presidential nominee.

They must quickly pivot to unify a shaken Democratic Party, refocus an entire campaign apparatus around a new presidential ticket and organize the ground game to get out the vote.

Trump’s team faces its own challenge, refocusing its relentless attacks from Biden’s age, 81, stamina and ability to govern to a yet-to-be-named Democratic nominee, which appears increasingly likely to be Harris.

“Not only would Harris be a disaster in the White House, but she also helped Biden cover up his declining health while in office, which destroys her credibility,” said a statement from the Republican National Committee chairman Michael Whatley and co-chairman Lara Trump.

Hawaii Sen. Mazie Hirono, Minnesota Sen. Tina Smith, Virginia Sen. Tim Kaine and California Sen. Laphonza Butler also said they would support Harris, who had served as a U.S. senator, as did a growing number of Democratic House lawmakers.
