In a surprising turn of events, President Joe Biden has announced he will not seek re-election in the 2024 presidential race.
Biden cited the need to focus on completing his current term effectively as the primary reason for his decision. He has endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris as his preferred successor, which has already garnered support from prominent Democrats such as Barack Obama, Nancy Pelosi, and Bernie Sanders.
This development sets the stage for an intense primary race as the Democratic Party looks for a new nominee.
