"content": "\u003cp>California’s nearly 500 delegates to the Democratic National Convention next month will play a key role in choosing a replacement nominee now that President Joe Biden has ended his reelection campaign.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As they processed the thunderbolt announcement on Sunday, some of them quickly fell in line with his wishes: End the drama and close ranks behind Vice President \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/tag/kamala-harris/\">Kamala Harris\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I feel this huge sense of relief because it means the fighting is going to stop,” said Mike Thaller, chairperson of the California Democratic Party senior caucus, who was watching PBS’ “This Old House” when a friend called him with the news.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Following weeks of concerns about his cognitive health and public pressure to drop out, fueled by a disastrous televised debate performance in late June, Biden \u003ca href=\"https://x.com/JoeBiden/status/1815080881981190320\">published a letter\u003c/a> in which he acknowledged, “I believe it is in the best interest of my party and the country for me to stand down and focus solely on fulfilling my duties as President for the remainder of my term.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Like millions of Americans, the Californians who are set to travel to Chicago in mid-August to select the Democratic Party’s nominee for president were in shock in the immediate aftermath of the revelation. But they told CalMatters that they are also excited about participating in a historic moment and hopeful that, after weeks of turmoil, Biden’s momentous decision — which included endorsing Harris as his replacement — could turn around Democratic prospects of stopping another term for former President Donald Trump.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I don’t think it’s time to mess around,” said Brian Calderón Tabatabai, the mayor of West Covina who is also running for a state Assembly seat, recovering quickly from being “in a haze” after hearing the news on his way to brunch. “Right now is the time to show we, as the Democratic Party, have our things together, and this isn’t the chaos a lot of folks are making it seem.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sasha Renée Pérez, the mayor of Alhambra who is running for state Senate, said she hoped that Harris would help motivate voters who hadn’t been paying attention to the election before now, boosting fundraising and turnout in swing districts as Democrats also fight to regain control of the House in November.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“She comes from our home state. She’s a Black woman, an Indian woman. We’ve just never had anyone like her be our candidate,” Pérez said. “We have to get this show on the road and get her elected.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Taking Biden’s signal, Democrats across the country — leaders of key caucuses in Congress, party activists, even former \u003ca href=\"https://x.com/BillClinton/status/1815102085198958657\">President Bill Clinton and 2016 nominee Hillary Clinton\u003c/a> — quickly closed ranks behind Harris, dampening the prospects of an open convention in which delegates might choose from among a field of candidates after a flash primary.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California’s Gov. Gavin Newsom, who has been \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/politics/2024/07/gavin-newsom-biden-democrats/\">widely mentioned as a potential future presidential prospect\u003c/a>, was slower to fall in line. Newsom \u003ca href=\"https://x.com/GavinNewsom/status/1815085381081281005\">released a statement\u003c/a> praising Biden as an “extraordinary, history-making president” but did not immediately endorse Harris, whom he had said in recent weeks that \u003ca href=\"https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2024-07-10/newsom-biden-challenge-harris-president-election\">he would not run against\u003c/a>. His spokespeople did not respond for hours to questions about how he would like to see the party select a replacement nominee, though this afternoon, he eventually \u003ca href=\"https://x.com/GavinNewsom/status/1815168477562646858\">posted online\u003c/a> that “no one is better to prosecute the case against Donald Trump’s dark vision and guide our country in a healthier direction” than Harris.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Also \u003ca href=\"https://x.com/SpeakerPelosi/status/1815102711823548552\">notably absent among the voices\u003c/a> initially endorsing Harris was former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, who reportedly played an outsized role in \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/politics/2024/07/nancy-pelosi-role-biden-out/\">persuading Biden to drop out\u003c/a> and told fellow California Democrats that \u003ca href=\"https://www.politico.com/news/2024/07/19/pelosi-support-open-nomination-biden-drop-out-00169893\">there should be an open process\u003c/a> to select a replacement. On Monday, Pelosi \u003ca href=\"https://www.axios.com/2024/07/22/nancy-pelosi-kamala-harris-democratic-nominee-endorsement\">threw her support behind Harris\u003c/a> in a statement, calling her “brilliantly astute – and <a href=”https://www.kqed.org/news/11996704/former-speaker-nancy-pelosi-endorses-kamala-harris-for-president”>I have full confidence that she will lead us to victory in November.</a>”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>None of the delegates who spoke with CalMatters said they had alternative candidates in mind, pointing toward a more likely competition to be Harris’ vice presidential pick.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’ll be surprised if anyone else gets into it,” said Sal Rosselli, president emeritus of the National Union of Healthcare Workers, calling Harris the “obvious choice to replace him.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Harris drew criticism from left-wing critics during the 2020 primaries over her record as a prosecutor and California’s attorney general. Progressive activists and criminal justice reformers have criticized her \u003ca href=\"https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2019/01/30/why-did-kamala-harris-withhold-support-special-investigations-police-shootings/\">handling of police shootings\u003c/a> and called her \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/politics/2024/07/kamala-harris-california-background/\">record on the death penalty mixed\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But it wasn’t enough to dissuade progressive delegate Calderón Tabatabai. He called Harris “highly, highly ready to take over” for Biden and praised both for pushing a progressive domestic policy agenda, including efforts to expand workers’ rights.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Those are issues,” he said of Harris’ record on criminal justice. “Are those issues something that would get me to say, ‘No, I’d like to see someone different at this point?’ Not now. Not when I understand what Project 2025 is,”\u003cstrong> \u003c/strong>he said, referring to the \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/article/project-2025.html\">conservative policy wish list for a second Trump term\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Igor Tregub, a city council member in Berkeley who supported the progressive U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders in the 2020 presidential primaries, said he was won over by how much the Biden-Harris administration accomplished during the past four years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I have seen how hard she works every single day on so many issues that I, as a Democrat, care about,” Tregub said. “I am ready to work at 200% to support her and whoever she picks as her vice presidential candidate.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Most delegates who spoke with CalMatters emphasized how the party should avoid the drama and contention of an open convention, especially in light of \u003ca href=\"https://x.com/JoeBiden/status/1815087772216303933\">Biden’s endorsement\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Democrats need to focus on what we’re bringing to the table for working families and Americans, and [the convention] not being a circular firing squad,” political strategist Bill Wong said. “I don’t care who the nominee is at this point, as long as we have a plan to hold the White House in November.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In addition, there would be particularly challenging optics of passing on Harris, a mixed-race Black and Indian American woman, who was selected as Biden’s vice president partly as an acknowledgment of the crucial role Black women voters play in the Democratic coalition.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Obviously, we want to respect and support the people who helped get us here in 2020, and that’s Black women. We shouldn’t forget them,” said Dan Kalmick, a city council member in Huntington Beach.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some delegates were more optimistic about the state of the race with Harris’ apparently easy path toward the nomination, citing her forceful statements supporting reproductive rights as a way to win women voters in swing states and the fact that she’s significantly younger than former President Donald Trump.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Republicans have spent months telling voters the Democrats had an old guy running, and that boomerang just hit them,” longtime Democratic strategist Bob Mulholland said. “Harris should challenge the old man Trump to a 100-meter race to settle this.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>No delegates that CalMatters spoke to disagreed with Biden’s decision, and several praised him for eventually deciding to do what he believed was best for the country and not just himself.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I know this decision cements his legacy,” Tregub said. “History will judge him kindly for his long and meaningful history of in so many ways advancing not just the best of what the Democratic agenda has to offer but the best of America.”\u003c/p>\n\n",

She’s a Black woman, an Indian woman. We’ve just never had anyone like her be our candidate,” Pérez said. “We have to get this show on the road and get her elected.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Taking Biden’s signal, Democrats across the country — leaders of key caucuses in Congress, party activists, even former \u003ca href=\"https://x.com/BillClinton/status/1815102085198958657\">President Bill Clinton and 2016 nominee Hillary Clinton\u003c/a> — quickly closed ranks behind Harris, dampening the prospects of an open convention in which delegates might choose from among a field of candidates after a flash primary.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California’s Gov. Gavin Newsom, who has been \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/politics/2024/07/gavin-newsom-biden-democrats/\">widely mentioned as a potential future presidential prospect\u003c/a>, was slower to fall in line. Newsom \u003ca href=\"https://x.com/GavinNewsom/status/1815085381081281005\">released a statement\u003c/a> praising Biden as an “extraordinary, history-making president” but did not immediately endorse Harris, whom he had said in recent weeks that \u003ca href=\"https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2024-07-10/newsom-biden-challenge-harris-president-election\">he would not run against\u003c/a>. His spokespeople did not respond for hours to questions about how he would like to see the party select a replacement nominee, though this afternoon, he eventually \u003ca href=\"https://x.com/GavinNewsom/status/1815168477562646858\">posted online\u003c/a> that “no one is better to prosecute the case against Donald Trump’s dark vision and guide our country in a healthier direction” than Harris.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Also \u003ca href=\"https://x.com/SpeakerPelosi/status/1815102711823548552\">notably absent among the voices\u003c/a> initially endorsing Harris was former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, who reportedly played an outsized role in \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/politics/2024/07/nancy-pelosi-role-biden-out/\">persuading Biden to drop out\u003c/a> and told fellow California Democrats that \u003ca href=\"https://www.politico.com/news/2024/07/19/pelosi-support-open-nomination-biden-drop-out-00169893\">there should be an open process\u003c/a> to select a replacement. On Monday, Pelosi \u003ca href=\"https://www.axios.com/2024/07/22/nancy-pelosi-kamala-harris-democratic-nominee-endorsement\">threw her support behind Harris\u003c/a> in a statement, calling her “brilliantly astute – and <a href=”https://www.kqed.org/news/11996704/former-speaker-nancy-pelosi-endorses-kamala-harris-for-president”>I have full confidence that she will lead us to victory in November.</a>”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>None of the delegates who spoke with CalMatters said they had alternative candidates in mind, pointing toward a more likely competition to be Harris’ vice presidential pick.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’ll be surprised if anyone else gets into it,” said Sal Rosselli, president emeritus of the National Union of Healthcare Workers, calling Harris the “obvious choice to replace him.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Harris drew criticism from left-wing critics during the 2020 primaries over her record as a prosecutor and California’s attorney general. Progressive activists and criminal justice reformers have criticized her \u003ca href=\"https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2019/01/30/why-did-kamala-harris-withhold-support-special-investigations-police-shootings/\">handling of police shootings\u003c/a> and called her \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/politics/2024/07/kamala-harris-california-background/\">record on the death penalty mixed\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But it wasn’t enough to dissuade progressive delegate Calderón Tabatabai. He called Harris “highly, highly ready to take over” for Biden and praised both for pushing a progressive domestic policy agenda, including efforts to expand workers’ rights.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Those are issues,” he said of Harris’ record on criminal justice. “Are those issues something that would get me to say, ‘No, I’d like to see someone different at this point?’ Not now. Not when I understand what Project 2025 is,”\u003cstrong> \u003c/strong>he said, referring to the \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/article/project-2025.html\">conservative policy wish list for a second Trump term\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Igor Tregub, a city council member in Berkeley who supported the progressive U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders in the 2020 presidential primaries, said he was won over by how much the Biden-Harris administration accomplished during the past four years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I have seen how hard she works every single day on so many issues that I, as a Democrat, care about,” Tregub said. “I am ready to work at 200% to support her and whoever she picks as her vice presidential candidate.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Most delegates who spoke with CalMatters emphasized how the party should avoid the drama and contention of an open convention, especially in light of \u003ca href=\"https://x.com/JoeBiden/status/1815087772216303933\">Biden’s endorsement\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Democrats need to focus on what we’re bringing to the table for working families and Americans, and [the convention] not being a circular firing squad,” political strategist Bill Wong said. “I don’t care who the nominee is at this point, as long as we have a plan to hold the White House in November.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In addition, there would be particularly challenging optics of passing on Harris, a mixed-race Black and Indian American woman, who was selected as Biden’s vice president partly as an acknowledgment of the crucial role Black women voters play in the Democratic coalition.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Obviously, we want to respect and support the people who helped get us here in 2020, and that’s Black women. We shouldn’t forget them,” said Dan Kalmick, a city council member in Huntington Beach.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some delegates were more optimistic about the state of the race with Harris’ apparently easy path toward the nomination, citing her forceful statements supporting reproductive rights as a way to win women voters in swing states and the fact that she’s significantly younger than former President Donald Trump.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Republicans have spent months telling voters the Democrats had an old guy running, and that boomerang just hit them,” longtime Democratic strategist Bob Mulholland said. “Harris should challenge the old man Trump to a 100-meter race to settle this.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>No delegates that CalMatters spoke to disagreed with Biden’s decision, and several praised him for eventually deciding to do what he believed was best for the country and not just himself.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

He has loved our country.

And I’m sure it’s a day that’s very emotional for him. Made the announcement based on what was good for the country.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>John Dennis: \u003c/strong>I think it was probably the best for the Democrats for him to do that. I bet the Democrats wish they had done it sooner. Vice President Harris, assuming that she’s the nominee, whoever the nominee is, a lot of ground is going to have to make up against Donald Trump. But I think in many ways, this is just a way to have a shot at saving the House and the Senate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Rusty Hicks: \u003c/strong>For California Democrats, our mission has always been to defeat Donald Trump, to retake the House. My support will be for Kamala Harris as our next Democratic nominee for president and our next president.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Congressman Mark DeSaulnier: \u003c/strong>I’ve already endorsed Vice President Joe Biden for decades, and I’ve known her since we were both in local government.

That being said, I want to talk to people in the district. I want to get a pulse for how people feel. I think I think I’m being honest. It’s probably Vice President Harris. But, you know, I think I think we’re still reeling from the last two, three hours. I want to get a sense of what this race will look like by the week.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Alex Emslie: \u003c/strong>So, yeah, Just what was your reaction to that news this morning about. By not only saying he’s not going to seek the nomination, but also putting his endorsement behind Kamala Harris for president?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Victor Quatrell Bolenger: \u003c/strong>It’s time, because, I mean, he’s been sleep, so it’s time for him to relax.

I think I’m still sort of processing it. It’s just it’s also super last minute.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>AD Mohanraj: \u003c/strong>I think, like since it’s so late, like maybe there is a time for like a full, like, who else might be like a candidate. So it seems like, it makes sense for me like that. It’s like Harris is well positioned, but I don’t know anything about like, her policies or anything specifically.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Julie Shew: \u003c/strong>I think I’m jazzed about it. I’m totally jazzed about the fact that he stepped down and he’s picking Kamala Harris. I think it’s a really good thing. You know, I’m excited about what’s to come. And I know my friends are as well. I think it would be really great. I think women have to break a lot of glass ceilings and to see a woman president of color would be a really wonderful thing for this country.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Alex Emslie: \u003c/strong>I just first like to ask just what your reaction to information was today that bulls President Joe Biden said he’s not going to be the nominee to run against Donald Trump.

I don’t think she’s going to beat Trump because Trump is a millionaire. And plus, Trump. Trump got a lot of support. It’s going to be hard.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Sloan Holzer: \u003c/strong>I consider myself a liberal person. I know you know, we live in a world where it seems like the option or the left or the right, and I really don’t believe in that. I think there’s people that know what to do and people who don’t know what to do. And I think this guy was not prepared. No, not prepared. He was not fit. I don’t know if I heard that is going to come out here. He’s going to be the substitute, Right?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Alex Emslie: \u003c/strong>I don’t think it’s a done deal.

I think that’s like a pretty big instance of that. I think that it will be a really interesting campaign to follow no matter what happens.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Sloan Holzer: \u003c/strong>Cross your fingers and hope that whatever whoever is going to be in charge of this really important viewed the best thing for all of us.

Fearless. Tenacious.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In interviews and statements, members of the party’s congressional delegation and local activists applauded Biden’s decision and paid tribute to his time in office. While Biden’s decision comes after an escalating pressure campaign by party leaders to persuade him to drop his reelection bid, Biden allies such as Rep.

"content": "\u003cp>As efforts to push embattled President Joe Biden out of the race crescendo, Gov. Gavin Newsom has remained one of his most committed champions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Asked last week by CBS News’ Robert Costa about receiving appeals to jump into the fray to replace Biden as the Democratic nominee, Newsom said he hits “delete, delete, delete, delete” on the texts and emails.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m all in, no daylight” with Biden, Newsom said in a \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2iqgFXQrDCk\">short clip released by CBS News\u003c/a> to promote the interview, which was ultimately preempted after Saturday’s attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Though not a new message from Newsom, it underscores how the governor has emerged as perhaps Biden’s most forceful surrogate through the chaos that followed the president’s June 27 debate debacle. As a growing number of elected officials call for Biden to forgo his party’s nomination for a second term, Newsom has tied himself more closely to the president than almost any Democrat in the country who’s not already on the ticket — including other ascendant younger politicians who could \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/politics/elections/2024/07/gavin-newsom-for-president-assets-liabilities/\">potentially be his rivals in a future presidential race\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Political strategists told CalMatters this is a prudent posture for Newsom, who does not have the clout to influence Biden’s decision about whether to leave the race but stands to benefit from being seen as a team player, even if Biden drops out or loses in November. In addition to shrewdly raising his own profile through aggressive advocacy for the president, Newsom’s loyalty could win him favor with party insiders positioned to boost his candidacy if he eventually runs for the Democratic nomination.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Newsom wants to be seen as a loyal soldier. He doesn’t have any other cards to play,” said Matt Rodriguez, a Democratic consultant who worked on presidential campaigns for Barack Obama, Dick Gephardt and Bill Bradley. “He’s doing the thing he needs to do.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A spokesperson for Newsom, who has publicly and repeatedly denied any interest in the presidency, said there is no strategy involved in his strong support for the Biden campaign.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Governor Newsom’s advocacy for the President and his administration reflects a recognition of all that President Biden has accomplished, Governor Newsom’s loyalty to the President and the Vice President, and a clear view of the real danger a second Trump administration would have for California and democracy in America,” Nathan Click said in a text message.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2 id=\"h-playing-the-long-game\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Playing the ‘long game’\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>When chatter about whether to dump Biden as the nominee exploded last month following his catastrophic performance in the televised debate against Trump, Newsom was \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/article/joe-biden-democrats-nomination-gavin-newsom-whitmer.html\">among the top tier of potential replacements\u003c/a> floated by pundits.

Gavin Newsom has remained one of his most committed champions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Asked last week by CBS News’ Robert Costa about receiving appeals to jump into the fray to replace Biden as the Democratic nominee, Newsom said he hits “delete, delete, delete, delete” on the texts and emails.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m all in, no daylight” with Biden, Newsom said in a \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2iqgFXQrDCk\">short clip released by CBS News\u003c/a> to promote the interview, which was ultimately preempted after Saturday’s attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Though not a new message from Newsom, it underscores how the governor has emerged as perhaps Biden’s most forceful surrogate through the chaos that followed the president’s June 27 debate debacle. As a growing number of elected officials call for Biden to forgo his party’s nomination for a second term, Newsom has tied himself more closely to the president than almost any Democrat in the country who’s not already on the ticket — including other ascendant younger politicians who could \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/politics/elections/2024/07/gavin-newsom-for-president-assets-liabilities/\">potentially be his rivals in a future presidential race\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Adam Schiff (D-Burbank) is calling on President Joe Biden to \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/forum/2010101906268/pressure-grows-on-president-biden-to-step-aside\">end his reelection campaign\u003c/a>, becoming the most high-profile California Democrat to do so.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a written statement on Wednesday, Schiff called Biden “one of the most consequential presidents in our nation’s history” but said it was “time for him to pass the torch.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The push is significant coming from Schiff, who is almost certain to be the next senator from California and is closely allied with influential former Speaker Nancy Pelosi. He is \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11978557/rep-adam-schiff-and-steve-garvey-advance-in-u-s-senate-race\">facing Republican Steve Garvey\u003c/a> for the U.S. Senate seat that was long held by the late Dianne Feinstein.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Our nation is at a crossroads,” Schiff said. “A second Trump presidency will undermine the very foundation of our democracy, and I have serious concerns about whether the President can defeat Donald Trump in November.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The call to step aside by Schiff, who has close ties to other Democratic Party leaders, indicates that despite the president’s insistence that he’s not dropping out, the debate over Biden’s future is still roiling the party. On Wednesday, the Democratic National Committee announced it would push back a controversial virtual roll call to nominate Biden by a week. That voting was set to begin as soon as next week; instead, it will begin the first week of August – still ahead of the convention, which starts Aug. 19. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Schiff is just the latest elected Democrat in California to call for Biden to withdraw. Pelosi \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11993449/pelosi-suggests-time-is-running-short-for-biden-to-reconsider-campaign\">raised questions\u003c/a> last week about whether Biden should stay in but stopped short of calling for him to drop out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to \u003ca href=\"https://apnorc.org/projects/most-say-biden-should-withdraw-from-the-presidential-race/\">an AP poll released Wednesday,\u003c/a> 65% of Democrats nationwide think Biden should drop out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Schiff said the decision is up to the president alone but said withdrawing would help Biden “secure his legacy of leadership by allowing us to defeat Donald Trump in the upcoming election.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, Schiff said he will work to elect whomever Democrats nominate next month.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“But make no mistake, whoever our party ends up nominating, or if the nomination remains with the president, I will do everything I can to help them succeed. There is only one singular goal: defeating Donald Trump. The stakes are just too high,” Schiff said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

Adam Schiff (D-Burbank) is calling on President Joe Biden to \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/forum/2010101906268/pressure-grows-on-president-biden-to-step-aside\">end his reelection campaign\u003c/a>, becoming the most high-profile California Democrat to do so.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a written statement on Wednesday, Schiff called Biden “one of the most consequential presidents in our nation’s history” but said it was “time for him to pass the torch.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The push is significant coming from Schiff, who is almost certain to be the next senator from California and is closely allied with influential former Speaker Nancy Pelosi. He is \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11978557/rep-adam-schiff-and-steve-garvey-advance-in-u-s-senate-race\">facing Republican Steve Garvey\u003c/a> for the U.S. Senate seat that was long held by the late Dianne Feinstein.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Our nation is at a crossroads,” Schiff said. “A second Trump presidency will undermine the very foundation of our democracy, and I have serious concerns about whether the President can defeat Donald Trump in November.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

On Wednesday, the Democratic National Committee announced it would push back a controversial virtual roll call to nominate Biden by a week. That voting was set to begin as soon as next week; instead, it will begin the first week of August – still ahead of the convention, which starts Aug. 19. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Schiff is just the latest elected Democrat in California to call for Biden to withdraw. Pelosi \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11993449/pelosi-suggests-time-is-running-short-for-biden-to-reconsider-campaign\">raised questions\u003c/a> last week about whether Biden should stay in but stopped short of calling for him to drop out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to \u003ca href=\"https://apnorc.org/projects/most-say-biden-should-withdraw-from-the-presidential-race/\">an AP poll released Wednesday,\u003c/a> 65% of Democrats nationwide think Biden should drop out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Schiff said the decision is up to the president alone but said withdrawing would help Biden “secure his legacy of leadership by allowing us to defeat Donald Trump in the upcoming election.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, Schiff said he will work to elect whomever Democrats nominate next month.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“But make no mistake, whoever our party ends up nominating, or if the nomination remains with the president, I will do everything I can to help them succeed. There is only one singular goal: defeating Donald Trump. The stakes are just too high,” Schiff said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
