WASHINGTON: US President Joe Biden has picked former Maryland Governor Martin O'Malley to lead the massive, financially challenged US agency that distributes Social Security benefits to the elderly and disabled, the White House told Reuters on Wednesday .

A former Baltimore city council member and city mayor, O'Malley's eight-year term as Maryland governor ended in 2015. His 2016 presidential run as a younger, more liberal alternative to Democratic Party frontrunner Hillary Clinton failed to catch fire.

The programme with more than 70 million beneficiaries is especially popular with elderly voters in competitive political states from Florida to New Hampshire and Pennsylvania.
