A top Democratic fundraiser said she is fully behind President Biden’s candidacy as others in her party have spent the last week remaining silent on their support.
Philadelphia-area activist Lindy Li, who recently raised more than $1 million for Biden’s candidacy, said he clearly had a bad debate night, but maintained that he remains both the best hope to defeat former President Trump and a true personification of a traditional Democrat.
"Honestly, what we think or what anybody thinks is irrelevant because he is the one who holds all the cards here, and he's decided to stay in the race and hold onto his preponderance of delegates," Li said of Biden. "We just have to get behind him."
Li, a frequent political commentator on MSNBC and a member of the DNC's National Finance Committee, had previously clashed with the progressive wing of her party, including supporters of democratic socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt.
Li describes herself as a "conservative Democrat," but has long pledged her commitment to the president, despite his setbacks. She said that Biden has long been a consensus-minded politician.
