November 1, 2022 / 6:38 PMCalifornia Gov. Gavin Newsom insists he is not interested in running for president, although he's bought ads in Florida and Texas to troll their GOP governors, elevating his profile ahead of the 2024 election as President Biden"It's not my ambition," the Democrat told CBS News chief Washington correspondent Major Garrett in an exclusive interview on Saturday."It's not the direction that I'm leaning into. It's not the moment.
The governor is seeking a second term after surviving a recall election in 2021. Since his reelection race is not close, he's been directing his efforts elsewhere, like New Mexico, where Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham is in a tight race. "Look, I can be the cheerleader. I'm also pragmatic," he said."You feel it. It's not just intellectualization based on polling."
