Summary
59.7% of the vote gave Kathy Hochul another term as New York governor, and she said she would not shut the door on joining a 2028 Democratic presidential ticket.
Asked how she would respond if a White House hopeful sought her as a running mate, Hochul said she did not get where she is by “slamming doors.”
Hochul also stressed her immediate focus is New York, saying voters backed her to fight for them over the next four years and pointing to universal child care as an issue she wants to champion nationally.
Her comments land as Democrats begin sizing up the 2028 field, with Kamala Harris, Gavin Newsom, Wes Moore, JB Pritzker and Josh Shapiro among the names already being discussed.
