It would be a chance to control the media with their narrative, for once, and potentially come out with a stronger candidate, or a strengthened Harris.
I don't see how a quick ballot helps anyone but the established donors.

The Dems want to win the election and messy nomination does not help that goal. Harris was the VP and there was a decent chance that Biden wouldn't even finish his last term so there was a chance she would have been president anyways.
I don't think she is a particularly strong candidate but they are controlling the narrative and media by uniting behind her. The last thing they needed in the news cycle was Harris getting dunked on by other candidates.
Her raise from small donors also suggests the base is fine with the decision.
