Prominent Democratic legislator Adam Schiff has urged President Biden to withdraw from the 2024 election, citing doubts about his ability to defeat former President Trump. Schiff's call for Biden to step aside has been met with criticism, as the Democratic Party plans for an early virtual roll call to nominate Biden before the convention.
A poll shows that a majority of Democrats want Biden to not run. However, the Ohio ballot deadline change has complicated the party's plans.
Despite concerns about Biden's age and health, his campaign team appeals to the media to focus on the issues. The Democratic Party is growing increasingly worried about Biden's performance and is exploring alternative options.
Schiff acknowledges Biden's accomplishments but believes it is time for him to pass the torch to preserve his legacy. The division within the party over Biden's candidacy deepens, while the Republican Party shows unity at their convention.
The upcoming virtual roll call is expected to determine the Democratic nominee before the convention, although some House Democrats are concerned about potential divisions within the party. Overall, the Democratic Party faces challenges in navigating the path to the 2024 election.
