By John Wagner John Wagner National reporter leading The Post's breaking political news team Email Bio Follow March 4 at 8:03 AM After months of deliberation, former attorney general Eric Holder said Monday that he will not join the crowded and still-growing Democratic presidential field.
Holder, who served in the Obama administration and was the first African American to hold the post of attorney general, had repeatedly said that he was seriously considering a White House bid of his own. Holder traveled the country extensively as chairman of the National Democratic Redistricting Committee, a group that has sought to combat gerrymandering that benefits Republicans in state and local races.“With state legislatures set to begin drawing new voting districts in 2021, what happens in those races over the next two years will shape the next decade of our politics,” he wrote.As of Friday morning, 14 other Democrats had announced White House bids of exploratory committees.
