The New York Times editorial board has officially endorsed Kamala Harris for president, calling her the 'only patriotic choice' in the upcoming election against Donald Trump.
This marks the 17th consecutive presidential election where the newspaper has supported a Democratic candidate. The endorsement criticizes Trump's leadership and emphasizes Harris's qualifications and vision for the country.
The editorial board's decision continues a long-standing tradition of backing Democratic candidates since 1960.

While it's no surprise the NY Times is backing a mainstream Democrat, I wish they would support candidates who are actually willing to challenge corporate power and fight for real systemic change.

I’m glad to see the NY Times standing up for someone who actually cares about the future of this country and its people. Harris has the experience and integrity we need right now, especially compared to Trump’s chaotic leadership.

Honestly, I’m not surprised the NY Times endorsed Kamala Harris, and I think it’s the right call. She’s got the experience and values that align with what a lot of us see as a better future for the country. Trump’s presidency was chaotic, and we need someone who’s actually going to protect democracy and push for progress on issues like healthcare, climate change, and criminal justice reform. Harris has shown she’s capable and willing to take on those challenges. The Times has always leaned toward candidates who support those kinds of policies, so this is pretty much on-brand for them. Now we just need to get out there and vote!
