In a new memo obtained by NBC News, the campaign’s battleground states director, Dan Kanninen, says that despite intense media coverage on Democratic divisions, organizers talking to voters consistently found that issues such as women’s rights and the potential GOP agenda of Project 2025 are paramount.
“While voters consistently mention President Biden’s age when contacted, our target voters — both re-engagement and true swing voters — are still planning to vote for him, making it clear the debate has not hurt support among the voters who will decide this election,” he writes in the memo.
Kanninen says he won’t “sugar coat the state of the race: we have our work cut out for us to win this November.” But he underscored what Biden has said repeatedly since his poor debate performance — that he is “in it to win it.”
“He’s the presumptive nominee, there is no plan for an alternative nominee. In a few short weeks, Joe Biden will be the official nominee,” he writes. “It is high past time we stop fighting one another. The only person who wins when we fight is Donald Trump.”
Biden advisers have privately warned Democrats in recent weeks that the messy mechanics of potentially replacing Biden at the top of the ticket could only further divide the party. Vice President Kamala Harris would most neatly inherit the existing campaign infrastructure, campaign manager Julie Chavez Rodriguez told donors shortly after the debate, but the process around choosing a new nominee could be messy and complicated.

Somebody is making a lot of fake leaks to try to make something happen. Now I won’t believe it until I hear it from Jill’s mouth.
I fully support Biden remaining the Democratic nominee to be. (swallow, running antiseptic bath)
So much for the poorly sourced rumors about him dropping out that Newsmax has been spreading.
If true a really big if-—EXCELLENT.
He needs to stay in the race...
Stick to your guns taterhead, don’t let ‘em push you around!
Biden is utterly useless. All of the leaks about him leaving and he has nothing to say for about a week. You want to stop it, get on camera and say, 14m votes 2000 delegates, im thr nominee whether Nancy Pelosi likes it or not. I’ll be handimg over the mantle to my VP in 2028. Any other questions? The fact that he can’t do that is so so telling.
Hey, he’s dropping out.....you can count on it.....it’s just a matter of time.
My gut tells me if dementia joe makes it through this weekend to Monday, he will survive this.
The Democrats and media are capable of anything. Stay alert.
That’s exactly what’s happening but it only works because Biden can’t get in front of a camera.
Is that what Press Secretary Fuzzy Top has to say?
Newsmax isn’t alone in saying this; it is being pushed by mainstream Democrat leadership.
I agree. It’s not over until Jill Biden says it’s over.
Go Brandon.🤣🤣🤣🤣
In a pool thread someone started a couple days ago, I picked Saturday (tomorrow) at 8 pm
Democratic insurrectionists are trying to force Joe out!
He will make the announcement as soon as he feels better, my guess is between Sunday thru Thursday.
He will say it’s time to pass the torch to the younger generation, unlike Trump. He will remain President thru inauguration day, and will undoubtedly pardon Hunter after the election.
Kamala is heir apparent, the Dems will need to come up with some scam to select, er, elect her VP.
Time is of the essence, thus Biden will be out within 7 days.
The media will hail the decision as statesmanlike and praise to God that brilliant Kamala will take the mantle.
First woman President will be the cheer, and they will save abortion.
Trump sure is a warrior, The debate was a knockout punch in the first round.
