Leaders of the Democratic National Committee are moving swiftly to confirm President Biden as his party's presidential nominee by the end of July. Since May, he has been set to be confirmed through a virtual roll call, weeks before the Democratic National Convention in August.
In a previously unreported move, a group of House Democrats who question whether Biden should continue is trying to rally support for changing the nominating path to allow for potential challenges at the convention.
Donors and prominent strategists have floated ideas to open the door to other candidates, but party insiders have dismissed those proposals. The process will effectively begin when the rules committee of the Democratic National Convention meets on a video call at 11 a.m. on Friday.
