NEW YORK—New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio has announced that he will enter the 2020 presidential race, according to a source close to the mayor.
A liberal Democrat, the 57-year-old de Blasio is serving his second four-year term as mayor of the country’s biggest city and will be prevented by term limits from running again in 2021. He is scheduled to appear on ABC’s “Good Morning America” on Thursday after launching his campaign with a video, said the source, who requested anonymity to discuss the rollout ahead of time.
