Stacey Abrams on VP run with Biden: "You don't run for second place"

Former Georgia gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams addressed the possibility of her joining Joe Biden as vice president in his yet-to-be-announced 2020 campaign on Wednesday, saying: "I think you don't run for second place."

Buzz: "If I'm going to enter a primary, then I'm going to enter a primary," she added, in her interview on The View. Abrams later clarified that she was not completely shutting down the idea of running as a VP on Biden's ticket, but she is considering running her own campaigns.

  • "I do not know if I'm running. I'm thinking about everything." Abrams mentioned possibly running for president, as well as running in a Senate race or running in a another governor's race.

Pelosi's back-to-school math problem

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) may need votes from an unlikely source — the Republican Party — if she hopes to pass the bipartisan infrastructure bill by next Monday, as she's promised Democratic centrists.

Why it matters: With at least 20 progressives threatening to vote against the $1.2 trillion bipartisan bill, centrist members are banking on more than 10 Republicans to approve the bill.
