Democrats in Congress are having to calculate how to address questions about whether or not they believe President Joe Biden should run again.
Some have refused to answer, others have said he should, and at least one has come out and said he does not believe the president should run again.
The question was raised during the debate for New York’s 12 Congressional District.
In response to the question of whether Biden should run again, Rep. Jerrold Nadler (D) responded, “Too early to say. Doesn’t serve the purpose of the Democratic Party to deal with that until after the midterms.”‘
Meanwhile, Rep. Carolyn Maloney (D), who is also running for the seat, declined to say whether she thinks Biden should run.
Instead, she said, “I don’t believe he’s running for reelection.”

For his part, Biden has repeatedly said that he intends to run again in 2024.
