Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer said she won’t close the door on a 2028 Democratic presidential bid, leaving her options open for what could be a crowded and contentious primary race.
Whitmer — who is halfway through her second term and cannot run again due to term limits — said for now she is focused on her work as governor and helping Democrats in the 2026 midterm elections.
