2028 Democratic Rivals Target Andy Beshear

“Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear is in open war with prominent Latino lawmakers, and his potential 2028 rivals for president are taking advantage,” Axios reports.

“Beshear, as head of the Democratic Governors Association (DGA), has resisted pressure from Latino leaders to invest heavily in Gina Hinojosa’s campaign for Texas governor, opting to focus on races in other states.”

“In response, Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker, California Gov. Gavin Newsom and Maryland Gov. Wes Moore have given money to Hinojosa’s bid to unseat Texas Gov. Greg Abbott (R) — and earned praise from Latino lawmakers.”

“The back-and-forth amounts to one of the first fights of the 2028 Democratic primary, against the backdrop of the party’s desperation to reverse the GOP’s recent gains among Latino voters.”
