Democrats and Republicans Begin Positioning for 2028 Presidential Race
With the 2024 midterm elections concluded, potential Democratic candidates are beginning to position themselves for the 2028 presidential race, though no official contenders have declared. Governors like Kentucky's Andy Beshear and California's Gavin Newsom are gaining attention through fundraising, travel to early nominating states, and increased national profiles. Republicans have a smaller field, with Vice President JD Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio mentioned as possible successors to former President Trump, who is ineligible for a third term.
