Chris Christie Considers Third 2028 Presidential Run After Midterms

Christie said a third campaign would need a credible path to the nomination and could hinge on whether Republicans suffer major midterm losses.

  • Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie said Tuesday he is considering a third run for the Republican Party nomination in 2028, but will wait until after November's midterm elections to decide.
  • Midterm election results could determine if the Republican Party is ready to move away from its "dominant wing," Christie stated, helping shape the political landscape for the next presidential cycle.
  • Christie ran unsuccessfully in 2016, finishing sixth in New Hampshire with 7.4% of the vote, then again in 2024 before suspending his campaign days before Iowa caucuses.
  • He described the 2028 field as "absolutely wide open," but emphasized any future bid requires a "credible path" to victory—a condition absent during his 2024 race.
  • With a final decision likely in 2027, Christie continues positioning himself as an independent voice while urging lawmakers at the Granite State Summit to regulate prediction markets.
