Campaigns for the 2024 presidential election are underway, and various candidates are vying for the role of commander-in-chief.

While Election Day is a little under a year away, it's still important to know who is running, including the current president. Is Joe Biden seeking reelection?

Here is what you need to know about his candidacy.

Is Biden running for president?

Yes, Biden is running for president. He announced his 2024 reelection campaign in a video on April 25. The announcement came on the fourth anniversary of Biden's entry into the 2020 presidential campaign.

Biden's campaign remains focused on the "battle for the soul of America," continuing the central message of his campaign from four years ago. In the video, he says the question facing the nation is "whether, in the years ahead, we have more freedom or less freedom, more rights or fewer."

"This is not a time to be complacent," Biden says in the three-minute video. "That's why I'm running for reelection. Because I know America. I know we're good and decent people. I know we're still a country that believes in honesty and respect and treating each other with dignity."
