Sen. Patty Murray, D-Wash., speaks during a media availability on Capitol Hill, Tuesday, Sept. 12, 2023 in Washington. Senate President Pro Tempore Patty Murray stopped just short of calling for President Biden to drop out of the presidential race Monday evening, saying he needs to do more to show he can beat former President Donald Trump in November.
Ms. Murray, a senator since 1993, is third in line to the presidency as president pro tempore and said she has “a deep appreciation and strong respect for Joe,” and called his first term as president “historic.” Ms. Murray joins a growing list of Democrats who have become critical of Mr. Biden since his shaky debate performance in Georgia last month.
While no Senate Democrats have explicitly gone that far, Ms. Murray is the most prominent Democrat in either chamber to raise concerns about Mr. Biden’s viability.
