Report: Biden could hold 2024 announcement until the fall

Advisers and close allies to President Joe Biden reportedly do not expect him to formally announce he is running for reelection any time soon — potentially waiting until the fall.

“President Biden’s advisers and close allies don’t expect him to announce a run for re-election any time soon — and some now believe it could come as late as July, or perhaps even the fall,” Axios reported on Monday.

Notably, by waiting, he’s leaving potential staffers, who need to make plans on their own, up in the air after reports in January claimed that Biden, who would be 86 years old at the end of a second term, was getting close to announcing his intentions to run for reelection following his family vacation last year and after months of speculation at the time.

Axios reported that there has yet to be any indication of the president changing his mind about running again. Still, if he makes a later decision not to run, he would provide Vice President Kamala Harris with a slight advantage if she wanted to run for president.
