Democratic leaders of both chambers of Congress were supportive of delaying the Democratic National Committee's virtual roll call nomination, as concerns persist about President Biden's candidacy.
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., pushed for the Democratic National Convention's delay as questions persist about President Biden's 2024 candidacy, according to multiple sources. Schumer spoke with House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., and both men agreed to urge a delayed convention despite initial plans to hold a virtual roll call to officially nominate Biden, three sources told Fox News Digital.
The Democrats suggested that the early roll call could be perceived as a 'purely political maneuver,' particularly as Biden has welcomed member challenges at the convention. SCHUMER CALLS FOR DEMOCRAT MENENDEZ'S RESIGNATION AFTER GUILTY VERDICT 'No matter what may be reported, our goal is not to fast-track,' Walz and Daughtry assured members in the Wednesday letter.
