First 2028 Democrat Announces They Are Not Running For President – story-veterans.com

Moore downplayed his high-profile trips to battleground states, including a recent trip to South Carolina.

“And people should get very used to me going all over the country bringing business back to Maryland, because that’s exactly what I plan on doing as long as I’m the governor of the state,” Moore said after a dedication in Annapolis for a memorial to former Rep. Parren Mitchell.

Moore, who is in the third year of his first term, expects to compete for reelection in predominantly Democratic Maryland next year. He said becoming the state’s governor during a difficult period requires his whole attention.

Another name continues to be floated as making early moves before 2028: Pete Buttigieg.
