D.C. Attorney General is officially on the record endorsing Senator Kamala Harris of California for president.

“She’s a leader who’s not afraid to tackle difficult issues, she relies on evidence-based approaches to resolve complicated problems and importantly, when she makes a mistake, she makes herself accountable. How refreshing is that?” Racine told the Washington Post. She ““has demonstrated over a period of nearly 20 years of public service that she has the grit, the toughness, the embedded values and deeply ingrained values of fairness to really lead the Democratic Party and defeat Donald Trump,” Racine said.

Racine is friends with Harris’s husband, Douglas Emhoff, with whom he used to work at a law firm in D.C., per a Politico profile published last month. He told the Post that he got to know Harris while she was running for re-election as California’s attorney general in 2014, and he was running for D.C. attorney general.

Harris has already publicly praised Harris before. He told Politico that he “loved” her, and that “the opportunity to help someone like Kamala is intriguing.”

Translation: He definitely wouldn’t mind being her Attorney General.
