Pritzker Visits New Hampshire, Fueling 2028 Speculation

Illinois Governor JB Pritzker's visit to New Hampshire on Sunday has ignited early speculation about the 2028 Democratic presidential nomination. Pritzker, who has been a vocal critic of former President Donald Trump, is the first prominent Democrat thought to be considering a White House run to visit the key primary state.

During his visit, Pritzker met with local voters, Democratic party officials, and community leaders. He discussed a range of issues, including the economy, healthcare, and education. While Pritzker did not explicitly announce any presidential aspirations, his presence in New Hampshire is widely seen as a signal of his potential interest in the 2028 race.

New Hampshire holds significant weight in presidential elections, as its early primary often shapes the field of candidates. The state's voters have a reputation for independent thinking and can be influential in determining which candidates gain momentum.

Pritzker's visit marks the unofficial start of the 2028 Democratic presidential nomination process. Other potential candidates are expected to visit New Hampshire and other early primary states in the coming months, as they begin to assess their chances and build support for a possible run.
