Key quote:

Bidenā€™s defiance against calls for him to leave the presidential campaign after last monthā€™s debate have only worsened his chances in November, Cook Editor-in-Chief Amy Walter wrote.

ā€œBiden was losing pre-debate. Now, heā€™s losing by a bit more,ā€ she said, adding that the possibility Biden leaves the race at this point is ā€œremote.ā€

Citing postdebate polling, Cook announced it will move Minnesota, New Hampshire and Nebraskaā€™s 2nd Congressional District from ā€œLikely Democraticā€ to ā€œLean Democratic.ā€ The group also moved Nevada, Arizona and Georgia from ā€œTossupā€ to ā€œLean Republican.ā€

    Iā€™m not advocating for anyone other than not trump- but I am concerned that putting someone up that no one knows much about is gonna cause people to just not vote out of frustration/apathy/ignorance, and then what happens?

      People know about Biden. Heā€™s losing. This would be a fine argument if he was just winning but looked shaky, but thatā€™s not the situation.
