WASHINGTON—President Biden’s advisers are moving forward with planning for the president’s likely 2024 re-election campaign, with discussions focused less on whether Mr. Biden will seek a second term and more on how a campaign would operate alongside the White House next year.

Mr. Biden’s team has begun to hold preliminary discussions about the structure of the campaign and who could fill key roles, though there is no timeline for hiring, as well as where headquarters would be located. Possibilities include Philadelphia, where the 2020 campaign was based before the Covid-19 pandemic, and the president’s hometown of Wilmington, Del., people close to the discussions said.

The president has previewed a possible re-election message during recent trips to battleground states such as Arizona and Michigan, where he focused on his legislative victories of the past two years, efforts to boost domestic manufacturing, and economic improvement in the wake of the pandemic.

Biden advisers, who declined to discuss details of a potential campaign, said it would be unwise not to have planning under way as Mr. Biden thinks about seeking another term.

Mr. Biden has said that he intends to run but that he hasn’t made a final decision and will consult with family members during the holidays. Democrats’ surprising strength in November’s midterm elections, in which they held off predicted Republican gains in Congress, has helped him consolidate support within the party and silence chatter about potential primary challengers. Ron Klain, the White House chief of staff, said at The Wall Street Journal’s CEO Council Summit that he expected Mr. Biden to run again.

Mr. Biden, who turned 80 last month, has struggled with low approval ratings and skepticism from some voters over whether he should run again. The latest Wall Street Journal poll showed that 43% of registered voters had a favorable view of Mr. Biden and 54% had an unfavorable view. His advisers think the midterms showed that the president’s policies—including the recent energy, healthcare and tax bill—and his support for abortion rights as well as speeches arguing that democracy is under threat are popular with voters.-- excerpt, rest at link above --

I don't know how he can run again as he didn't run the first time.
