Biden is out of the race, but Harris still faces challenges.

Biden éirithe as an iomaíocht ach dúshláin fós roimh Harris.

Joe Biden gave only a minute's notice to his closest advisors in the White House before announcing yesterday that he would not be a candidate for the Democratic Party nomination.

Níor thug Joe Biden ach fógra nóiméid do na comhairleoirí is gaire dó sa Teach Bán sular fhógair sé inné nach mbeadh sé ina iarrthóir d'ainmniúchán an Pháirtí Dhaonlathaigh.

Sources close to the President say that he spent two days combing information from public opinion polls showing that it would be difficult for him to win against Donald Trump in the month of June.

Deir foinsí gar don Uachtarán gur chaith sé dhá lá ag cíoradh faisnéise ó phobalbhreitheanna a bhí ag taispeáint go mbeadh sé deacair air bua a fháil in aghaidh Donald Trump mí na Samhnra.

A sudden announcement, but the pressure on Biden from senior Democrats was gathering strength during the week, and despite Biden himself putting his feet up in public, it was clear that that pressure was having an impact on him.

Fógra tobann ach bhí an brú ar Bhiden ó Dhaonlathaigh shinsearacha ag bailiú nirt i gcaitheamh na seachtaine, agus in ainneoin Biden féin ag cur cosa i dtaca go poiblí, ba léir go raibh an brú sin ag imirt tionchair air.

On 645 yesterday he gathered his campaign team together, just before he announced it publicly, at his home in Delaware, where he has been since he contracted Covid again.

Ar 645 inné a bhailigh sé foireann a fheachtais le chéile, díreach sular fhógair sé go poiblí é, ag a theach in Delaware, áit a bhfuil sé ó tholg sé Covid arís.

The decision came three weeks after the debate against Donald Trump, a debate in which Biden failed to pull a punch on his opponent; he made speech bubbles there and left many of Trump's false claims on a wide range of topics unanswered.

Tháinig an cinneadh trí seachtaine tar éis na díospóireachta in aghaidh Donald Trump, díospóireacht inar theip ar Biden aon dorn a tharraingt ar a chéile comhraic; rinne sé bothúin cainte ann agus d'fhág sé roinnt mhaith de mhaíomh bréagach Trump ar réimse leathan ábhar gan freagra.

He then made other mistakes, introducing Ukrainian president Volodomir Zelensky at a NATO event as 'President Putin'.

Rinne sé botúin eile ina dhiaidh sin, ag cur uachtarán na hÚcráine Volodomir Zelensky i láthair ag ócáid de chide NATO mar an 'tUachtarán Putin'.

Since then, the acuity of his mind has been questioned and more emphasis has been placed on his age and ability to spend another four years in the White House, and it was clear that the Democrat was disturbed by the question.

Ó shin, tá amhras á chaitheamh ar ghéire a intinne agus béim níos mó á chur ar a aois agus ar chumas ceithre bhliana eile a chur de sa Teach Bán, agus ba léir go raibh an Daonlathaigh suaite ag an gceist.

In his announcement yesterday, Biden gave his blessing to his Vice President Kamala Harris and promised all support for her and his party in the fight they would face.

Ina fhógra inné, thug Biden a bheannacht dá Leas-Uachtarán Kamala Harris agus gheall gach tacaíocht di agus dá pháirtí sa troid a bheadh rompu.

But Biden's exit from the race leaves some questions about the process Democrats will follow from now until the party's National Convention next month.

Ach fágann imeacht Biden as an iomaíocht roinnt ceisteanna faoin bpróiséas a leanfaidh na Daonlathaigh as seo go dtí Comhdháil Náisiúnta an pháirtí an mhí seo chugainn.

14 million Democrats voted in the primary elections and overwhelmingly voted for Biden, but now the party's course to Congress is uncertain.

Vótáil 14 milliún Daonlathach sna toghcháin tosaigh agus vótáil a bhformór mór acu ar son Biden, ach anois tá cúrsa an pháirtí go dtí an Comhdháil éiginnte.
