Biden drops out of US presidential race, endorses VP Kamala Harris
US Vice President Kamala Harris has kickstarted her presidential campaign, raising nearly $50 million less than a day after incumbent Joe Biden bowed out of the race and endorsed her. Prominent Democrats, including potential challengers to Ms Harris -- such as California governor Gavin Newsom -- immediately gave her their backing. But there is talk of an open convention when Democrats gather in Chicago next month, which is where the party will officially nominate its candidate for the presidential election in November. Caroline Malone reports from Washington DC.
