一位MSNBC分析师报告称，埃里克·霍尔德可能正准备投身2020年民主党初选，尽管今年早些时候他已经排除了竞选总统的可能性。
尤金·罗宾逊昨晚在社交媒体上声称，奥巴马时代的司法部长曾与战略家谈论过在已经拥挤不堪的民主党2020年初选领域竞选，称这些信息来自“一个好的来源”
分析师的说法也在MSNBC身上重复了一遍雷切尔·玛多秀昨天晚上，接下来几份报告前纽约市长迈克尔·布隆伯格也在考虑与领先者乔·拜登、伊丽莎白·沃伦和伯尼·桑德斯竞争。
“这变得更加有趣，”罗宾逊昨晚发推特说。“我从一个好消息来源得知，埃里克·霍尔德一直在咨询战略家们是否有可能加入民主党总统竞选。”
昨晚在她的节目中，MSNBC主持人雷切尔·玛多说据报告的这位网络分析师声称:“如果埃里克·霍尔德也在其中，而迈克·布隆伯格看起来可能也在其中，天啊，就在你以为一切都结束了的时候，它永远不会结束。”
霍尔德还没有公开发表关于他正在考虑在民主党初选中提出自己的报告，并且推特尤金·罗宾逊声称他正在就可能的行动咨询战略家，几个小时后他谈到了不公正的划分选区。
新闻周刊曾试图联系埃里克·霍尔德，以确认他是否计划在2020年参选，但截至发布时未收到回复。
这位前司法部长曾在2009年至2015年任职，现在是全国民主选区划分委员会主席，他断然拒绝今年3月竞选总统。
2016年7月26日，美国前司法部长埃里克·霍尔德在费城富国中心举行的民主党全国代表大会第二天发表讲话。
在a华盛顿邮报 op-ed民主党人表示，他不会“在2020年竞选总统”,而是专注于打击州立法机构与NDRC的不公平选区划分。
霍尔德写道:“我将尽我所能确保下一任民主党总统不会被来自不公正选区的议员推到极端的众议院所拖累。”。
他还表示，当时民主党的初选领域具有深度、多样性和“许多好的选择”，如果霍尔德决定参选，这一声明无疑会引发质疑。

ERIC HOLDER MIGHT MAKE LATE PRESIDENTIAL BID, MSNBC ANALYST CLAIMS
Eric Holder could be preparing to throw himself into the 2020 Democratic primary race, despite ruling out a bid for the presidency earlier this year, an MSNBC analyst has reported.
Eugene Robinson claimed on social media last night that the Obama-era attorney general had spoken with strategists about running in the already crowded Democratic 2020 primary field, saying the information came from a "good source."
The analyst's claim was also repeated on MSNBC's The Rachel Maddow Show yesterday evening, following several reports that former New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg is also considering pitching himself against frontrunners Joe Biden, Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders.
"It gets even more interesting," Robinson tweeted last night. "I hear from a good source that Eric Holder has been consulting strategists about possibly jumping into the Dem presidential race."
Speaking on her show last night, MSNBC host Rachel Maddow reported the network analyst's claim and said: "If Eric Holder is in the mix, and Mike Bloomberg looks like he might be in the mix, well jeez, just when you thought it's all over, it's never over."
Holder has not yet publicly addressed reports that he is thinking of putting himself forward in the Democratic primaries, and tweeted about gerrymandering hours after Eugene Robinson claimed he was consulting strategists on the possible move.
Newsweek has attempted to reach Eric Holder for confirmation of whether or not he plans to run in 2020, but did not receive a response by time of publication.
The former attorney general, who held office from 2009 to 2015 and is now chairman of the National Democratic Redistricting Committee, categorically ruled out a bid for the presidency in March this year.
Former U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder addresses the second day of the Democratic National Convention at the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia on July 26, 2016.
In a Washington Post op-ed, the Democrat said that he would "not run for president in 2020" and instead focus on his work fighting state legislature gerrymandering with the NDRC.
"I will do everything I can to ensure that the next Democratic president is not hobbled by a House of Representatives pulled to the extremes by members from gerrymandered districts," Holder wrote.
He also said that the Democratic primary field at the time had depth, diversity and "a host of good options," a statement that will no doubt raise questions should Holder decide to enter the race.
Reports of a potential Holder candidacy in 2020 came shortly after The New York Times and other outlets reported that the billionaire Michael Bloomberg was readying paperwork for a primary entrance this week.
In a tongue-in-cheek tweet, Senator Elizabeth Warren welcomed the former New York Mayor to the campaignwith a link to her campaign's tax calculator for billionaires.
The field of Democratic presidential candidates is one of the largest the party has seen in its history, with 17 runners still on the board and largely polling in single-digits.
A further nine candidates have dropped out of the race so far, including New York Mayor Bill de Blasio and Beto O'Rourke.
Real Clear Politics' Democratic primary polling average puts former Vice President Biden in the lead with a little more than 28 percent support among Democrat voters.
