Sarah Huckabee Sanders receives 2028 presidential encouragement
Supporters and donors have been encouraging GOP Arkansas Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders to run for president in the 2028 cycle, sources told ABC News.
Republican Arkansas Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders is reportedly receiving encouragement to run for president in the 2028 election cycle, according to sources familiar with the matter. The encouragement comes from supporters and donors who believe Sanders, who served as President Donald Trump's press secretary in 2017-2019, has the potential to be a rising star in the Republican Party.
Sanders, who became the first woman elected as Arkansas governor in 2022, was previously a senior adviser to Trump's 2016 presidential campaign and delivered the Republican response to Biden's State of the Union address in 2023. Her communications director, Sam Dubke, has stated that Sanders is looking forward to continuing her service to the people of Arkansas for the next four years.
Meanwhile, Georgia's retiring Republican Governor Brian Kemp is also considering a presidential bid following his departure from office in January, with donors and other Republican officials encouraging him to run.
