On Monday, July 22, Vice President Kamala Harris, will travel to Wilmington, Delaware—the home of the campaign headquarters that previously belonged to President Joe Biden’s reelection campaign, reports The Hill.

Harris’s visit will take place at 3:10 p.m., and her office said it is for a campaign engagement. It will be Harris’s first campaign engagement since Biden dropped his 2024 bid on Sunday, July 21, and endorsed Harris, who said in a statement that she planned to “earn and win” the Democratic presidential nomination.

Biden named Wilmington, which is where he keeps a home, the headquarters for his reelection effort. Biden’s 2020 campaign was headquartered in Philadelphia. Harris and her husband, Doug Emhoff, keep a home in California.

The campaign was renamed “Harris for President” as of Sunday. And, Biden campaign staff have changed their affiliation to the Harris campaign in communications with media.

The vice president raised nearly $50 million in grassroots donations in the hours after Biden made the hard decision to step aside for the sake of America’s democracy—and backed her. Harris worked the phones on Sunday, calling more than 100 party leaders, members of Congress, governors, labor leaders and civil rights groups.
