North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum is seriously mulling a bid for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination, a source familiar with his plans told CNN.
A Republican familiar with Burgum’s thinking said the governor will make a final decision in the next two to three weeks. Burgum suggested earlier this month that he was considering a run, telling a North Dakota newspaper that he was thinking about 2024 and that there was a hunger for an alternative candidate. “All the engagement right now is occurring on the edge,” he told The Forum of Fargo-Moorhead. “There’s definitely a yearning for some alternatives right now.
Burgum has a conservative track record as governor, signing a bill this year that bans gender-affirming care for most minors and enacting a near total-ban on abortions in the state. Burgum told The Forum that he sees value in being underestimated, calling it a “competitive advantage.” A former Microsoft executive, Burgum is currently serving his second term as North Dakota governor.
