U.S. VP Kamala Harris top choice to replace Biden if he steps aside - Reuters
Investing.com -- U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris is the top alterntive to President Joe Biden should he choose not to continue his campaign for re-election in November, Reuters reported on Wednesday.
A host of Democratic governors -- California's Gavin Newsom, Michigan's Gretchen Whitmer and Pennsylvania's Josh Shapiro -- have all reportedly been floated as potential alternatives. But the sources told Reuters that Harris retains the best name recognition and has polled the highest among serious possible Democratic candidates.
The news comes after Biden's performance in a much-anticipated debate with Republican challenger Donald Trump last week was widely viewed as a major failure. The 81-year old, who has faced doubts over his fitness to serve a second term in office, seemed to falter during the event, sparking a wave of speculation around whether he would choose to drop out of the race.
