Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) will not seek reelection.

In a four-minute video, Manchin said he will be traveling “the country and speaking out to see if there is an interest in creating a movement to mobilize the middle and bring Americans together.”

This means his Senate seat will likely go to a Republican in 2024.

And it will raise questions about whether Manchin will run for president as an independent.
