Oct. 26 California Gov. Gavin Newsom confirmed Sunday that he is considering a bid for the 2028 Democratic presidential nomination.
Newsom, among President Donald Trump’s most strident critics, said during an interview that aired on „CBS News Sunday Morning“, that he is likely to make his decision following the 2026 midterm elections.
„Yeah, I’d be lying otherwise“, he said. „I’d just be lying. And I’m not — I can’t do that.“
Newsom’s current term expires in January 2027, and term limits prevent him from seeking another term as governor, which would clear the way for him to seek the presidential nomination.
„Fate will determine that“, Newsom continued, when asked about his plans to seek his party’s presidential nomination.
