Talk:List of Joe Biden 2024 presidential campaign primary endorsements

Shifting This page from Primary to General
I'm unfamiliar with the process, but should we change this page from primary to a General election endorsement page? I don't see a reason to have both separately.

If so, what all would need to be changed on this page to accomplish that change? Tipsyfishing (talk) 16:34, 30 May 2024 (UTC)


 * We would just need to move the page I'm pretty sure and change a few things. But there's tons of precedent for keeping them separate.  ~Politicdude (About me, talk, contribs) 21:21, 30 May 2024 (UTC)
 * While I would agree in other situations (akin to the 2020 primary). In this situation I just do not see a valid reason to do so. There are virtually no "only for the primary" endorsements that Biden received.
 * Just don't want to have two pages with virtually the same information without a valid reason. The Trump endorsement page changed from primary to general. So see no reason for Biden's to not be the same. Tipsyfishing (talk) 00:23, 31 May 2024 (UTC)
 * I agree that just moving it would be the right way to go. If there are any primary-specific endorsements, these can be indicated with a footnote within the page itself instead of creating a separate one. Sunshineisles2 (talk) 15:26, 15 June 2024 (UTC)

Reflecting calls to drop out
There seems to be disagreement on how to display endorsers that subsequently call on Biden to drop out.

Since this page is focused on primary endorsements, it is inaccurate to keep endorsements from individuals that have publicly called on him to drop out. Even if they are clear about their intentions to support "whoever the nominee may be," it is false to claim that they are supporting Joe Biden to be the nominee and this page should reflect that. George Clooney authoring an op-ed calling for a "new nominee" and listing other potential candidates is clearly not someone that is endorsing Biden, for example.

Instead of removing them, it seems best to reflect these individuals be striking through their names with an explanation, as are rescinded and rejected endorsements. Using George Clooney as an example:


 * George Clooney, actor and filmmaker (called on Biden to withdraw)

If you have an argument for why those calling on him to drop out should remain as endorsers to his primary campaign, please explain. Biznaga22 (talk) 06:14, 11 July 2024 (UTC)


 * Support OP's proposed solution.  ~Politicdude (About me, talk, contribs) 17:37, 11 July 2024 (UTC)

Reliable sources
Hi all,

I am going through section by section reviewing sources to ensure they are reliable. I have left invisible notes for endorsers that I could not find reliable sources for. So far, I have reviewed the "Federal executive officials" and "U.S. Senators" sections. If anyone would like to help, please consult Political endorsements to ensure that we only include qualified endorsements based on reliable sources. Hopefully we can remove the reliable source template once all sections are reviewed.

Thanks! Biznaga22 (talk) 05:29, 12 July 2024 (UTC)
