HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) — AP is reporting… Gov. Josh Shapiro is running for a second term in the pivotal battleground state of Pennsylvania. The announcement Thursday comes after a first term that put him on the Democratic Party’s radar as a potential presidential contender in 2028.
First, he released a video Thursday morning touting his accomplishments as governor.
Then he made the announcement in Pittsburgh and, later, in Philadelphia. Although Shapiro hasn’t disclosed any ambitions for higher office, AP reports, his reelection effort will be closely watched as another test of whether he’s White House material.
