Here Are The Republicans Still Weighing A Presidential Bid In 2024

Though the 2024 Republican primary landscape has become increasingly crowded, there are several more potential candidates still waiting to jump in.

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and South Carolina Sen. Tim Scott are the latest additions to the growing GOP field, joining former President Donald Trump, former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley, former Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson, businessman Vivek Ramaswamy and conservative radio personality Larry Elder. North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum, former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie and former Vice President Mike Pence are expected to launch campaigns soon, while others continue to weigh a bid.

Burgum is expected to enter the presidential race soon and make a “major announcement” on June 7 in Fargo, North Dakota, the Daily Caller News Foundation previously confirmed. The two-term governor has already been filming television commercials in preparation for a campaign launch, and expressed presidential aspirations on May 13 following the conclusion of the state’s legislative session.

“There’s a value to being underestimated all the time,” Burgum told Inforum. “That’s a competitive advantage.”

Burgum handily secured his first term in 2016 by roughly 60 points and won reelection in 2020, beating his Democratic challenger 65.8% to 25.4%, according to Ballotpedia.
