Last week, President Joe Biden dropped out from the Presidential race, a decision which came in the backdrop of mounting pressure from fellow Democrats and voters i🦂n the United States.
"It had been the greatest honour of my life to serve as your President. And while it has been my intention to seek reelection, I believe it is in the best interest of my party and thꩵe country for me t🥀o stand down and to focus solely on fulfilling my duties as President for the remainder of the term," Biden had said in his official statement.
Shortly after announcing his withdrawal, Biden had endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris as his replacement and the n𓃲ominee for the presidential ca🍒ndidate.
"My fellow Democrats, I have dec💟ided not to accept the nomination and to focus all my energies on my duties as President for the remainder of my term. My very first decision as the party nominee in 2020 was to pick Kamala Harris as my Vice President. And it’s been the best decision I’ve made," Biden had said in his post on X.
He offered his full support to Harris and endorsed her to be the nominee of the Democrats this year. "Democ♋rats — it’s time to come ☂together and beat Trump. Let’s do this," he added.
The US Election 2024 is scheduled to be held on November 5, 2024. And as for the opponent, Donald Trump has ꦦbeen nominated as the Republican presidential candidate, with JD Vance picked as his running mate.
