As Vice President Kamala Harris has all but surely become the Democratic nominee for president, some House Democrats in swing seats have yet to endorse her.

In the 48 hours since President Joe Biden announced he would step aside from the race, Harris has secured enough delegates to become the Democratic nominee and raised $100 million. While Biden was in the race but facing calls from a growing number of Democrats to drop out, some downballot Democrats worried about their chances of winning with Biden at the top of the ticket. 

When Harris announced she was running, she said her “intention is to earn and win this nomination.”

Now, some vulnerable Democrats have yet to endorse the new nominee in toss-up districts, according to the Cook Political Report. 

Rep. Mary Peltola (D-AK)

Alaska’s at-large Rep. Mary Peltola (D-AK) told CNN she does not give political endorsements and that she is declining to give Harris her endorsement. In 2022, Peltola flipped a seat that was held by a Republican for nearly 50 years.

“There’s a lot of work left to do for Alaska these next six months — and that’s my first priority. President Biden made a decision that a lot of politicians wouldn’t. He and his family are in my prayers. I’m not sure who the Democratic candidate will be,” Peltola posted on X. 

“All I can say is Alaskans should vote their conscience this November, know your bipartisan delegation has your back, and that we’re covering all the angles no matter who is in the White House and which parties have majorities in Congress,” she continued.

Rep. Don Davis (D-NC)

Rep. Don Davis (D-NC) did not endorse Harris or mention her in his brief statement on Biden’s withdrawal from the race.

“I wholeheartedly support President Joe Biden’s decision to withdraw from the presidential race. My sincere prayers are with him and his family as I continue to focus on fighting for eastern North Carolina,” Davis said in a statement when Biden stepped aside.

His website and social media accounts have not posted about any endorsement as well.

Rep. Marie Gluesenkamp Perez (D-WA)

Following Biden’s withdrawal from the race, Rep. Marie Gluesenkamp Perez (D-WA) released a statement that her prayers were with the president and that many in her southwestern Washington district did not have confidence in Biden’s ability to lead. 

“I doubt the president’s judgment about his own health, his fitness to do the job, and whether he is the one making important decisions about our country, rather than unelected advisers,” she said in a previous statement calling upon Biden to drop out.

Now, she has not endorsed Harris, simply saying the next president should be “fit enough to do the job.”

“It’s time to move forward and put the past behind us. The next President must clearly be fit enough to do the job, and that fitness must be prosecuted publicly,” she posted on X, without giving an endorsement to Harris.

Rep. Marcy Kaptur (D-OH)

In Rep. Marcy Kaptur’s (D-OH) statement when Biden stepped aside, she commended his work and said that “history will record and look fondly on this significant progress.” 

Nonetheless, her statement did not include an endorsement of Harris, and her social media accounts have been quiet on any endorsement of the vice president.

Rep. Jared Golden (D-ME)

Rep. Jared Golden (D-ME) represents Maine’s 2nd Congressional District, which is largely rural and voted for former President Donald Trump in 2020. He previously said he could not commit his vote to Biden due to Biden’s perceived health concerns.

“I will not vote for someone if I don’t think they are physically or mentally equipped to lead this nation,” he said, adding, “I do not know the answer to that question at this time.”

Golden also made headlines earlier this month for saying, “Donald Trump is going to win. And I’m OK with that.”
