    This is the best summary I could come up with:

    Biden announced on Sunday afternoon in a letter that he will not be seeking a second term in this year’s presidential election and threw his support behind Harris.

    Craig Snyder, the group’s director, told Newsweek in an email on Sunday afternoon that the organization believes Harris “is best suited to defeat Donald Trump in November.”

    Haley, the former South Carolina governor and United Nations (U.N.) ambassador running for the GOP ticket, ended her campaign in March following losses on Super Tuesday in competition with Trump who is the Republican Party’s presidential nominee.

    She also polled well among moderates and college-educated voters that don’t support Trump’s Make America Great Again (MAGA) agenda.

    Snyder told Newsweek that Haley’s “disparaging comments” were “motivated by political rather than substantive concerns, and we are certain that those comments will not be a decisive factor in the ultimate voting decision of the Haley voters whose extraordinary act in the primaries of protest against Donald Trump as the leader of the Republican Party means they are going to give the Democratic nominee at the very least serious consideration in November.”

    In another social media post, the PAC expressed support for Harris and wrote “We welcome @KamalaHarris taking the torch that @JoeBiden passed to her.”
