President Biden tells Democratic governors he’s staying in race
SUMMARY: President Joe Biden remains in the presidential race despite some pressure from within the Democratic Party to withdraw after a troubling debate performance. Biden’s administration and campaign are filling his schedule with public appearances and private meetings, aiming to recover from the debate setback.

Some Democrats worry about the potential impact on down-ballot races if Biden continues. Meanwhile, former President Trump is preparing to accept the GOP nomination. The Democratic timeline is tight, hinging on Biden’s decisions.
President Biden met with Democratic governors on Wednesday in a closed door meeting to discuss the future of his campaign. The White House has been attempting to calm down fears among donors and the party’s base after Biden struggled in the debate against Donald Trump.
