Former Housing and Urban Development Secretary Julián Castro says he will “likely” run for president in 2020, his strongest indication yet since he first floated a possible bid earlier this year.
Castro, in an interview with Rolling Stone magazine, added that he will make a “final decision” after November’s midterm elections.
“I’m likely to do it,” the former Democratic mayor of San Antonio told the magazine. “I have a strong vision for the country. I believe that our country’s going in the wrong direction and that it needs new leadership.”
“I’ll make a final decision after November, but I’m inclined to do it,” he added.
Castro, who led the Department of Housing and Urban Development under the Obama administration, has made similar comments multiple times before.
