STORYLINE:
An AP survey finds that Vice President Kamala Harris has the support of more than half of the delegates she’ll need to take President Joe Biden’s place at the top of the Democratic ticket.

Over 1,000 pledged delegates told The Associated Press or announced that they plan to support Harris in a forthcoming vote to pick a new White House nominee.

Democratic National Committee rules most recently set 1,976 pledged delegates as the benchmark to win the nomination. Of the about 1,070 delegates who have spoken to the AP or announced their plans, fewer than 60 either declined to answer or said they were undecided. And Harris is the only Democrat to receive support from delegates so far.

Jane Dolan, a Democratic delegate from Chico, California, had been pledged to Biden, but now is supporting Harris.
