The former Georgia gubernatorial candidate did not rule out making a White House bid of her own next year.
By John Wagner John Wagner National reporter leading The Post's breaking political news team Email Bio Follow March 27 at 11:59 AM Stacey Abrams, the Georgia Democrat who narrowly lost her race for governor in 2018, said Wednesday she believes a woman or a minority candidate will win the Democratic presidential primary next year and said she is considering her own bid.
A Biden spokesman last week dismissed rumors of “a pre-cooked ticket” as false, and during Wednesday’s interview, Abrams said she and Biden had talked but that serving as his running mate “was not the core issue.”Appearing later Wednesday morning on ABC’s “The View,” Abrams said she is “open to all options,” including her own White House bid.She suggested that if she runs for president, it would not be with the aim of winding up as someone else’s choice for vice president.
“Whether we think he has taken sufficient responsibility will be determined as the process continues, but I think he’s begun the process appropriately by saying, ‘I know there’s pain, and I want to respond to that pain,’ ” Abrams said. Senate Minority Leader Charles E. Schumer is trying to recruit Abrams to run for the Senate next year.
