Harris was not a candidate in any of the Democratic primary elections. Joe Biden won the primary elections, but the delegates at the 2024 Democratic National Convention are allowed to vote for her, because Biden ended his campaign.

By July 22, most of the delegates said they would vote for Harris, enough for her to become the presumptive nominee.[14] On August 6, 2024, Harris picked Minnesota Governor Tim Walz as her running mate.[15][16]

In November 2024, the Harris-Walz ticked lost the election to former President Donald Trump and Ohio U.S. Senator JD Vance.[17]
