Yahoo News Stacey Abrams on Biden VP rumors: “If I’m going to enter a primary, then I’m going to enter a primary."

Former Georgia gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams (D) all but ruled out being Joe Biden’s presidential running mate when pressed Wednesday to address rumors that the former vice president is courting her for the role. “I think you don’t run for second place,” she said on ABC’s “The View,” sparking cheers from the audience. “If I’m going to enter a primary, then I’m going to enter a primary,” she continued. “And if I don’t enter the primary, my job is to make certain that the best Democrat becomes the nominee, and whoever wins the primary, that we make sure that person gets elected in 2020.”
