President Joe Biden is dropping out of the 2024 race following a disastrous debate with Republican Donald Trump, throwing the Democratic Party into chaos just months before the election. The Democrats are left with no clear candidate, a shocking development for an election many in the party argue is among the most consequential in a lifetime because of Trump's plans for a dramatic government overhaul formed around his grievances.

Biden won the vast majority of delegates and every nominating contest but one, which would've made his nomination mostly a formality. Now that he's dropped out, those delegates will be free to support another candidate. What happens after that is unclear.
