Nearly six months after former Vice President Kamala Harris lost her race to then-former President Donald Trump, the Democratic Party is still figuring out what comes next -- and more specifically WHO comes next.
For years, Illinois governor JB Pritzker been making appearances at Democratic Party events across the country. He's been the subject of many interviews on cable news and podcasts and the Sunday morning political shows. He also played the role of host during last year's Democratic National Convention in Chicago.
This raises questions about what is next for Pritzker. Will he run for a third term for governor or is he preparing for a presidential campaign? And how does he fit into the landscape of ambitious Democrats who sense an opportunity in 2028? Two journalists who have recently covered Pritzker in this context share their thoughts.
