It happened. Joe Biden has stepped down from the presidential race and endorsed Kamala Harris as the next Democratic candidate. Both moves are good decisions; over the past few weeks Biden’s poll numbers have plummeted, while Harris’s have steadily risen. The chaos of an open convention is not something most Democrats want, and I expect the party will quickly rally around Harris. But while the change puts an end to the suspense, it doesn’t yet solve a major issue for Democrats: how to lock in working-class voters in November.
事情发生了。乔•拜登(Joe Biden)退出了总统竞选，转而支持卡玛拉•哈里斯（Kamala Harris，汉名贺锦丽）成为民主党的下一个总统候选人。这两个决定都很好；过去几周里，拜登在民调中支持率大跌，而哈里斯的支持率稳步上升。大多数民主党人都不想看到公开举行的党代会乱糟糟收场，而我预计，该党很快将团结在哈里斯身边。但是，虽然说这个变动让局面不再悬着，民主党人的一个重大问题却还是没有解决，那就是如何在11月大选中稳住工人阶级选民。
