WSJ: Biden has told supporters he is running

John SextonPosted at 9:21 pm on March 19, 2019

The Wall Street Journal is reporting that Joe Biden has told close friends he intends to run for president. He is apparently concerned about not matching the big donations other declared candidates like Beto O’Rourke and Bernie Sanders have managed in the first hours of their campaigns:



    Former Vice President Joe Biden reached out to at least a half-dozen supporters Tuesday to tell them he intends to run for president and to ask for their help in lining up contributions from major donors so he can quickly raise several million dollars, a person familiar with the matter said.

    Mr. Biden has expressed concern to these people that he wouldn’t be able to raise millions of dollars in online donations immediately the way some other Democratic candidates have, including former Rep. Beto O’Rourke of Texas and Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont, this person said. Mr. O’Rourke raised $6.1 million in the 24 hours after he launched his bid for the Democratic presidential nomination, while Mr. Sanders collected $5.9 million in the same period.

    Mr. Biden wants to announce a large fundraising number after his candidacy is official to better compete in what is often dubbed the “money primary” that kicks off a presidential season.

This is the worst kept secret no one cares about.
I disagree.  Circle gets the square.
