In the aftermath of Joe Biden's lackluster debate performance, several Democrats running in competitive districts have voiced their apprehensions to the Biden campaign and the White House. They fear that Biden's presence at the top of the ticket could not only jeopardize the party's chances of retaining the presidency but also hinder their goal of regaining control of the House of Representatives from the GOP.
According to sources familiar with the discussions, Democratic lawmakers believe that Biden's performance could dampen voter turnout, a crucial factor in determining the outcome of key races, thereby diminishing their prospects of success in the upcoming November elections.
