Biden eligible for Democratic primary debate

  • 9 years ago
U.S. Vice President Joe Biden would be invited to participate in the first Democratic presidential primary debate if he announces his intent to run for the office, according to guidelines released on Monday by CNN, which is hosting the event.
Biden meets all but one of the criteria required to participate in the Oct. 13 event, which is sanctioned by the Democratic National Committee.
He has not formally declared his intent to run for the office.
Biden has been receiving between 17 percent and 25 percent support in polls over the last 10 days or so.
A group of supporters have been encouraging him to run for the presidency, but so far the vice president has yet to formally commit.
