Marianne Williamson Becomes First Democrat to Challenge Biden in 2024

US (Washington Insider Magazine) – best-selling author and spiritual advisor Marianne Williamson has announced her candidacy for the 2024 Democratic presidential nomination, making her the first major challenger to President Joe Biden within the party.

Key Points:

• Campaign Kickoff: Williamson, 70, is launching her campaign in Washington, D.C.
• Unconventional Candidate: Known for her spiritual and self-help messaging, she previously ran in 2020, gaining attention but little political traction.
• Challenges Ahead: With the Democratic establishment firmly behind Biden, Williamson faces an uphill battle.
• Early-State Strategy: She plans to visit key early primary states, including New Hampshire, despite DNC rule changes.

Williamson argues that Trump’s unconventional victory in 2016 proves outsiders can win, but whether she can gain momentum remains to be seen.
