OHIO (WJW) — Ohio officials are reacting after President Joe Biden announced that he is dropping out of the 2024 presidential race.

For local reactions and all new updates, check out the live blog below.

Biden, 81, announced Sunday he will no longer seek another four years in office after his physical and mental acuity were called into question following a prime-time debate in which he struggled to finish sentences, gave confused looks and fumbled through his answers.

The president said he would address the nation later in the week about his decision.

Biden endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris to become the Democratic Party’s nominee as he announced he would not seek reelection .

“Today I want to offer my full support and endorsement for Kamala to be the nominee of our party this year. Democrats — it’s time to come together and beat Trump. Let’s do this,” he wrote.
