MACKINAC ISLAND, Mich. (AP) — Democratic Gov. Gretchen Whitmer yesterday said she has “nothing to announce” about a possible 2028 presidential bid, stepping back her comment from hours earlier that she will not run for president after leaving office later this year.  Whitmer made those comments at a Mackinac conference yesterday.  Whitmer has long been viewed by some Democrats as a possible White House contender after her decisive election victories in the closely contested state that Republican Donald Trump has carried twice in presidential votes. Whitmer is term-limited and will be done after this year.  The Mackinac conference has become a hub of presidential speculation, with former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg and Sen. Elissa Slotkin — both considered possible 2028 contenders — also in attendance.
