Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has declined to rule out a 2028 presidential bid or a challenge to Senate Democratic leader Chuck Schumer, saying in an ABC News interview on Sunday that "anything is possible at this juncture." The New York Democrat, who said she is focused on the midterm elections, has emerged as a potential frontrunner after Bernie Sanders indicated he is unlikely to run again. AOC pointed to a "renewal" in the Democratic Party, citing insurgent primary wins like Abdul El Sayed's in Michigan. Prediction markets including Kalshi list her among top contenders for the Democratic nomination.
