WASHINGTON, July 22 (Reuters) - U.S. Senator Manchin Joe Manchin on Monday did not rule out a challenge to Vice President Kamala Harris or any other Democrat in the 2024 presidential race after President Joe Biden dropped out.

Manchin, an independent who left the Democratic Party, said in a CNN interview he had not given serious thought to re-registering as a Democrat.

Asked if he would run against Harris, whom Biden endorsed on Sunday, Manchin said, "I don't know."
