Despite Governor Chafee's decision to change his party affiliation again, state General Treasurer Gina Raimondo said Wednesday she is still "seriously considering" a run for governor.
"The question Rhode Islanders have is who can provide the leadership we need to move our state forward. The governor's decision to change parties for a second time has not changed my thinking," she said.
Chafee's switch from independent to Democrat places him in a potential three-way primary fight with Raimondo and Providence Mayor Angel Taveras.
Neither has announced for governor. But both far outpace Chafee in fundraising and job-approval numbers.
