Report: Glenn Youngkin ‘Reconsidering’ 2024 White House BidJordan Dixon-Hamilton 22 May 2023
Republican Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin is “reconsidering” a bid for the White House in the 2024 election, Axios reported.
This month, Youngkin said he would not run for president “this year,” leading many to speculate he called off any possibility of running for president.
As Breitbart News reported:
“No,” Youngkin told Wall Street Journal editor-at-large Gerard Baker when asked if he would be “dusting off” his signature fleece vest he became known for during his successful gubernatorial campaign.
Instead, Youngkin plans to focus on the state he was elected to lead during the 2021 Virginia gubernatorial election.

“I’m going to be working in Virginia this year,” Youngkin added.
However, Youngkin is “reconsidering” a presidential run, a top source close to the Virginia governor told Axios.
“He’s reconsidering. He’d be in his own lane: He’s not never-Trump, and he’s not Trump-light,” the source said.
A top Virginia Republican strategist told the outlet there are “serious discussions happening on re-engaging in the presidential” race.
A potential presidential announcement is likely to come after Virginia’s legislative elections in November, Axios reported.
