Almost two-thirds of people who have responded to a poll by conservative news aggregate website Drudge Report believe Hillary Clinton shouldn’t run for president ever again.
Sixty-five percent of poll participants said they do not want the former secretary of state and failed 2016 Democratic presidential nominee to launch “one last” campaign for the White House, while 34 percent were in favor of a third bid.
Former Clinton campaign strategist Adrienne Elrod said on Monday she was uncertain whether Clinton would come in first or even second if she tried to secure the Democratic nomination in 2020. Elrod’s comments follow an opinion piece by the New York Post on Saturday that suggested Clinton was “secretly planning” a return to presidential politics.
But Clinton herself has attempted to tamp down speculation she still harbored presidential ambitions, saying in September 2017 her career as an “active politician” were over.
As of Tuesday morning, more than 318,600 people had taken part in the Drudge Report’s unscientific online survey.
