De Blasio says he won't announce 2020 presidential run this week
New York Daily NewsHes gone from late to overdue.
Mayor Bill de Blasio revealed Monday that he will not announce his 2020 presidential bid this week after all, despite insiders widespread belief that he was planning to take the plunge.
Its not the night, no, de Blasio said on NY1 when host Errol Louis asked if he planned on breaking the news. And not the week.
On Friday, the Daily News exclusively reported that hizzoner would jump into the presidential race as early as Wednesday, joining a jam-packed field of 21 other Democratic hopefuls and two Republicans, according to four well-placed sources.
