Wednesday, February 28, 2024

WASHINGTON, Feb. 28, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- In eight months, voters will select the next president. Recent polls indicate a greatly diminished Joe Biden candidacy and a high likelihood of a Trump victory. Many experts see a high risk of an authoritarian takeover by the Trump-led MAGA Movement. To respond to this crisis, #unifyUSA and Landslide PAC are catalyzing a new movement to call for an Open Democratic Convention that can choose a stronger candidate than Biden. The organizers are calling on President Biden to step down from the 2024 Democratic nomination process urgently and gracefully and support an Open Convention—one that includes all would-be Democratic front-runners and other strong candidates who are currently running 3rd party campaigns.

Key Points: 
  • To respond to this crisis, #unifyUSA and Landslide PAC are catalyzing a new movement to call for an Open Democratic Convention that can choose a stronger candidate than Biden.
  • Although Joe Biden has achieved victories, other policies have also alienated critical constituencies, and he is a very weak candidate.
  • In 1932, during the Great Depression, an Open Convention nominated Franklin D. Roosevelt, who went on to win a landslide victory.
  • #unifyUSA and Landslide PAC invite participation in the Call for an Open Convention.
