I oversee the WSJ’s Washington bureau. Ask me anything about last night’s debate, where things stand with the 2024 election and what could happen next. AMA-Finished
President Biden’s halting performance during last night’s debate with Donald Trump left the Democratic Party in turmoil. You can watch my video report on the debate and read our coverage on how party officials are now trying to sort through the president’s prospects.
We want to hear from you. What questions do you have coming out of the debate?
What questions do you have about the election in general?

Edit, 3:00pm ET: I'm wrapping up now, but wanted to say a big thanks to everyone for jumping in and asking so many great questions. Sorry I couldn't answer them all! We'll continue to write about the fallout from the debate as well as all other aspects of this unprecedented election, and I hope you'll keep up with our reporting. Thanks, again.

No offense but that kind of thinking is what is preventing it, is every time anyone says 'lets take a serious shot at this' someone else says 'the system is rigged, we can't". Ross Perot did get an electoral vote and thats all it takes is electoral votes which come from getting the popular vote in a state. What stops a sizable number of people from voting 3rd party is voter outreach and candidate selection...if the Republicans can't find a better option then Trump and while I do like Biden I do admit as a Democrat our other options suck...its not impossible
