WASHINGTON — Vice President Kamala Harris created new uncertainty Wednesday about President Joe Biden’s intentions to run for reelection in 2024, pulling back from a definitive statement she had made earlier in the week.
“The president intends to run and if he does, I will be his ticket mate. We will run together,” Harris told a Los Angeles Times reporter as she prepared to depart for California aboard Air Force Two.
Advisers had told the reporter that Harris wanted to come to the back of the plane to clarify what she told CNN on Monday. In an interview with CNN’s Dana Bash, Harris was asked about speculation that Biden would not run and about her own potential candidacy.
