In a showdown on “The View” GOP Governor Chris Sununu (R-N.H.) unleashed a blistering assessment of the Democrats’ decision to anoint Kamala Harris as their presidential nominee, sparking a back-and-forth with the show’s hosts. Sununu pulled no punches while questioning the transparency and fairness of the process that led to Harris’s candidacy.

“Guys, look, three phone calls were made from [Chuck] Schumer and [Nancy] Pelosi. Biden said, ‘I’m in this thing, I’m not leaving.’ A couple phone calls are made and all of a sudden he’s pushed out. And in 48 hours, all the delegates aren’t given a choice of other candidates. They’re told you’re going to get behind [Harris],” Sununu explained.

Whoopi Goldberg then melted down, insisting that the delegates had indeed made a clear choice: “That’s actually not what happened! The other choices decided she was the best choice. That’s what they decided.”

But Sununu didn’t let up, probing into who really made the decisions, prompting a rapid exchange about the role of delegates and party leaders. “But who decided?” he pressed. “A lot of people voted for the ticket,” reminding the audience of the electoral support for the Biden-Harris ticket previously.

“Candidates need to give them a reason to turn out and vote,” Sununu wrote in a New York Times op-ed. “What solutions are you going to provide that will make life better for them, their families and their communities? This election will likely be a coin toss, and whoever turns out these voters will be well positioned to win.”

After Biden announced his decision to step down from the 2024 presidential race, a wave of controversy emerged surrounding Kamala Harris and the allocation of electoral delegates. The move initially caused turbulence within the Party, raising questions about the party’s unity and electoral strategy.

Biden’s departure left the party to reorganize its primary process, with Harris positioned as the prominent contender for the nomination. However, the controversy lies in the complex delegate allocation process, which some have argued unfairly benefited Harris due to her incumbency and existing support network within the party structure.

The party initiated their formal vote on Thursday to nominate Harris as their candidate, marking the beginning of a virtual roll call process that will extend over several days. Set to conclude on August 5, the voting process involves delegates casting their votes via personalized, watermarked forms that can be returned electronically or confirmed through a call from the DNC. The roll call is expected to conclude with Harris confirmed as the party’s nominee.

Her ascent to the nomination was all but assured after Biden’s announcement on July 21 that he would not seek re-election. The spotlight now turns to her choice of a vice-presidential running mate, with insiders suggesting an announcement could come as early as next Monday. According to CBS News, Harris is reportedly considering a shortlist that includes prominent figures such as Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro, Arizona Senator Mark Kelly, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear, and Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg.

The Democratic National Committee has committed to releasing the full results of the roll call after its completion, though it remains unclear if an announcement will be made as soon as Harris secures the necessary majority of 1,976 delegates.
