JAKARTA - Supporters of the United States Vice President Kamala Harris have started unofficial preparations for debate if US President Joe Biden withdraws from the election campaign, Politico reports citing unnamed sources.
According to the source, Harris's allies were involved in behind-the-scenes initiatives ensuring he would become a Democratic presidential candidate if Biden withdrew from his candidacy.
The report underscores Harris supporters have not yet received permission to act on its behalf, but plans to develop a more thorough image to attract convention and voter delegates.
The replacement initiative must address the doubts of a number of Democratic Party members that Harris will be able to win the election when pitted with former President Donald Trump, according to the article.

After Biden's poor debate performance on June 28, some politicians and journalists said that the current US president should be replaced and Harris was the most suitable replacement.
At the Democratic National Convention last August, in theory, the party could nominate other candidates if Biden stepped down, but so far, the president said he intends to continue his candidacy.
Biden's second debate with Trump is scheduled for September 10, and then the presidential election will take place on November 5.
