SUMMARY
President Biden is expected to announce his future plans soon after the Republican National Convention concludes in Milwaukee. Democratic insiders anticipate Vice President Harris will become the nominee if Biden drops his reelection bid. High-level discussions are considering potential running mates for Harris, with Sen. Mark Kelly, Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear, and North Carolina Gov. Roy Cooper as top contenders. Biden faces pressure from party leaders who doubt his ability to beat former President Trump. Harris’s favorable ratings are higher than Biden’s, and there's a push to prepare her campaign if Biden steps aside. Biden, who recently tested positive for COVID-19, may delay his announcement until Monday.
