ATLANTA, Ga. (Atlanta News First) - President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris released the names of 50 prominent Democratic Party officials Wednesday morning that will compose their national campaign advisory board.
Atlanta Mayor Andre Dickens and Georgia U.S. Sen. Raphael Warnock are included on the board, and are the only members from Georgia in a list mostly made up of officials from California and the Midwest.
The Biden-Harris 2024 reelection campaign said its advisory board “will help the campaign’s efforts to build on and expand the winning coalition that sent President Biden to the White House in 2020.
“Board members will participate in regular media interviews, assist with fundraising efforts and events, leverage their networks and platforms to amplify the campaign’s message to voters, and engage directly with voters through grassroots efforts and events in key battleground states,” the campaign said. “This initial group represents a cross section of leaders in the party who reflect the Biden coalition’s diversity across many facets, with more members likely to come on board as the campaign builds and grows.”
