Biden Drops Out of US Election, Endorses Kamala Harris
The USA’s current President Joe Biden has dropped out of the upcoming presidential elections and endorsed his Vice President of Indian origin, Kamala Harris for it.
In a surprising turn of events, President Joe Biden has decided to withdraw from the upcoming US presidential race. Citing concerns over his health and in the "best interest of my party and the country," Biden announced his decision from his residence in Delaware on 21st July 2024. The 81-year-old president, who recently tested positive for COVID-19, emphasized his commitment to focusing solely on his presidential duties for the remainder of his term.
Biden, whose presidency has been marked by public scrutiny over his health and occasional controversial moments, including a recent viral video where he appeared confused at an event, has now thrown his full support behind Vice President Kamala Harris. In a televised address, Biden endorsed Harris as the Democratic candidate, stating that she is best positioned to lead the nation forward.
The decision to endorse Harris, who would become the first female president and the first of Indian-origin if elected, marks a pivotal moment in US political history. Harris, known for her background as a former prosecutor and senator, has already garnered significant support within the Democratic Party.
According to a recent CBS TV Channel’s survey, Harris holds a substantial lead in key demographics over former President Donald Trump, with a 62-37% lead among young voters, a 76-21% lead among black voters, and a 52-47% lead among women voters.
While Biden's endorsement strengthens Harris's campaign, the Democratic Party has yet to make an official announcement regarding their next candidate. Harris's candidacy promises to bring diversity and new perspectives to the forefront of American politics, potentially reshaping the landscape of the upcoming election.
