WASHINGTON — Marianne Williamson, a best-selling self-help author, is throwing her hat in the U.S. presidential race once again, this time facing slimmer odds than with her first attempt in 2020.
Williamson said Saturday she’s exploring running for president as a Democrat and plans to make “an important announcement” in Washington on March 4. She’d be the first known challenger to President Joe Biden, who is widely expected to seek reelection.
Many Democratic leaders, including Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, have thrown their support behind a second Biden term.
