Rep. Betty McCollum, a veteran Minnesota Democrat, has made a significant call for Joe Biden to step aside and for Kamala Harris to take his place as the new Democratic standard bearer. McCollum has also recommended that Harris select Minnesota Governor Tim Walz as her running mate.
This move by McCollum adds to the growing chorus of congressional Democrats who are publicly urging Biden to drop out of the race. The call for Biden to step aside comes at a critical juncture in the election cycle, with the Democratic Party facing increasing pressure to reassess its strategy and leadership.
