California Senator Kamala Harris, who dropped out of the presidential race in early December, may be ready to endorse Joe Biden….
That would be a huge fillip for Biden, not least in California, where he is extremely keen to spoil a Sanders primary landslide. But it will be a big bonus nationwide as Super Tuesday voters stream to the polls, a terrific last-minute boost for the former VP in his dramatic comeback.
Breaking: what we suspected last night appears to be so: #KamalaHarris will join #JoeBiden at this morning’s rally in Jack London Square and endorse him for the Democratic nomination for president. Still working to confirm this independently https://t.co/uWeJybTnty
UPDATE: want to clarify previous tweet. #KamalaHarris will NOT be at Oakland rally w/ #Biden today. Two sides are still talking about endorsement. #SuperTuesday pic.twitter.com/Uzsw2kn983

All of the Democrats running for president have pitched substantial climate plans – responding to voters’ increasing concerns about rising temperatures and their widespread effects.
Two in three registered voters (66%) are worried about global warming, according to Yale’s climate change communication program. That includes 84% of liberal Democrats, 72% of moderate/conservative Democrats, and about half of liberal/moderate Republicans, but only a quarter of conservative Republicans.
