Tim Walz Announces Decision On 2028 Presidential Run

Just a couple weeks after embarking on a nationwide speaking tour in mostly red and purple states, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz announced his decision on whether he will be launching a presidential bid in 2028.

During a recent podcast interview conducted by former Democratic National Committee Chair Jaime Harrison, the former chair wasted no time in asking Walz about his potential White House ambitions. “First question that people would kill me if I didn’t ask. You think about running in 2028?” Harrison asked.

“I am not,” Walz said without hesitation in a somewhat surprising answer. “I am not. And my job, and I’ve said that, I am doing all I can to help build the party and make sure whoever that person is wins,” the governor added. “And I think we need to flood the zone with people.”

Walz’s decision to officially drop out of contention came as a bit of a shock to the political world as he appeared to be laying the groundwork for a bid. He has remained active in the national political space and has headlined a number of Democratic Party speaking events, as have additional presidential contenders such as Governors Gavin Newsom of California and JB Pritzker of Illinois.

The Minnesota governor has also received mixed results in the polling department. According to a recent 2028 Democratic Party primary poll from Echelon Insights, Walz was named as the preferred candidate by just three percent of respondents.

There was a silver lining in the poll, which had the governor’s former running mate leading rhetoric field, however. Among Democratic Party primary voters who back Kamala Harris, 14 percent named Governor Walz as their second choice, the highest among any other candidate.
