Key Points
Harris secured necessary delegate commitments quickly after Biden’s announcement.
Virtual roll call ensured Biden’s appearance on every state’s ballot.
Pros
Efficient way to secure nomination without traditional primary process.
Cons
Lack of real primary election or caucus participation by Harris.
