WASHINGTON (Reuters) – Democratic National Committee Chairman Jaime Harrison is not expected to seek renomination when the party holds a leadership vote early next year, according to two sources familiar with his thinking.
Harrison, who has come under criticism for his strong support for keeping Joe Biden in the 2024 race, announced his plans to leave the position before Tuesday’s disappointing results for Democrats, the sources said.
Harrison is expected to hold an all-staff meeting on Wednesday to discuss the results and why they fell short of his public expectations, as well as a possible timeline for a leadership vote, which is expected to take place before April.
Harrison did not respond to request for comment.
