Biden re-affirms staying in presidential race, Democrats doubt his chances of winning

Several members of the Democratic party have continued calling on U.S. President Joe Biden to step down from the presidential race scheduled for November and argue that his chances of winning are slim. However, the incumbent leader on Friday re-affirmed his participation in the polls and insisted that he is the right candidate to defeat former President Donald Trump who will be the Republican candidate.

VOA’s White House Bureau Chief Patsy Widakuswara filed this report which explains how the Democrats would find a replacement for Biden should the incumbent leader drop out.
