- Tara Reade, who has accused Joe Biden of sexually assaulting her while she worked as a staffer in his Senate office in 1993, expressed her desire for Biden to drop out of the race in a new interview.
- In a sit down with former Fox News anchor Megyn Kelly, Reade said that Biden "should not be running on character," and later added, "I wish he would" drop out.
- Biden has denied the assault ever took place. He told MSNBC last week that "it never happened."
- In a lengthy statement, Biden also called on the National Archives to release any record of a complaint Reade might have made, but the Archives confirmed to Insider they would not have such records. A complaint by Reade from 1993, if made, would be governed by Senate rules — which would prohibit their release.
