Political science experts weigh in on Biden's drop from 2024 race

President Joe Biden officially dropped out of the 2024 Presidential Race, leaving the democratic party without a presidential nominee.

Biden made the announcement in a statement on social media Sunday afternoon.

He said it's in the best interest of the party and the country if he stands down and that he will now focus on serving out the rest of his term in the White House.

Dr. E. Fletcher McClellan, a political science professor at Elizabethtown College, said he believes Biden decided to drop out due to his declining numbers in the polls paired with the democrats overriding desire to defeat former President Trump.
