Incumbent Democratic president Joe Biden is running for reelection to a second term. [2]
Since 2021, speculation had already begun brewing if President Joe Biden would seek a second term. Biden responded to this by announcing his intention to run in 2024. [3] However, during a CBS 60 Minutes interview, Biden said that he was "not committed" to run. [4] Massachusetts had been a Democratic leaning state since 1928, and a Democratic stronghold since 1960, and is still considered a deeply blue state today. [lower-alpha 1] Democrats have consistently defeated Republicans by large margins in Massachusetts since 1996. In 2020, Biden won the largest percent of the popular vote in the state since Lyndon B. Johnson in 1964.
The Massachusetts Democratic primary was held on Super Tuesday, March 5, 2024.
