Ouch! Democrat Candidates Avoid Asking Biden to Campaign with Them
As the Democratic Party continues too look toward the 2022 midterms with a great deal of rightful trepidation, a startling new trend is appearing out on the campaign trail.
President Joe Biden, whose abysmal approval ratings have conjured serious doubts about whether or not he should run for office again in 2024, hasn’t been receiving the usual glut of requests to head out to nation at large to boost other Democrats’ chances.
Few candidates said they wanted Biden to campaign for them in their state or district, with many not responding to the question at all. The Post also asked if candidates wanted Vice President Harris as a surrogate campaigner for the Biden administration and got the same set of unenthusiastic responses.
“No comment from the campaign at this time,” said a spokeswoman for Sen. Michael F. Bennet (D-Colo.), who is a Republican target in a state that Biden won by more than 13 points.
“We have not asked President Biden or VP Harris to campaign in Ohio and have no plans to do so,” said a spokeswoman for Rep. Tim Ryan (D-Ohio), who is the Democratic nominee in a tight U.S. Senate race. Pointing to a range of surrogates for Republican nominee J.D. Vance, the spokeswoman, Izzi Levy, added, “Tim has been very clear that he wants to be the face of this campaign, and that’s not changing anytime soon.”
