His deep knowledge of political data and elections earned him recognition in Washington.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He joined NBC News in 2007 as the network\u2019s political director, where he became a frequent on-air analyst.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2008, Todd became the NBC News Chief White House Correspondent, covering the Obama administration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Todd replaced David Gregory as the moderator of&nbsp;<em>Meet the Press<\/em>&nbsp;in 2014. Under his tenure, the show continued to be a major platform for political discussions, though he received criticism for being overly accommodating to certain guests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In June 2023, Todd announced he would step down, and Kristen Welker took over in September.
