    Virginia Governor Glenn Youngkin refused to completely rule out jumping into the 2024 Republican Party presidential primary when pressed about the matter over the weekend.

    The news comes after top Republican governors who will be influential in helping shape who wins the early states - like Iowa Governor Kim Reynolds and New Hampshire Governor Chris Sununu - have said that they do not believe that the race needs more candidates at this point since the process is already well underway.

    Youngkin made the remarks during an interview with Shannon Bream on "Fox News Sunday" which comes as reports have said that Rupert Murdoch, who owns Fox News, has personally urged Youngkin to run.

    Bream then highlighted a report in The Wall Street Journal, which is also owned by Rupert Murdoch, that claimed that if the state elections in Virginia go well this November that it could allow Youngkin to make a late entry into the race.

    "What do you thinking about 2024?" Bream asked. "Are you definitively ruling it in or out?"

    "Well, Shannon, I've been really clear, I am so focused on 2023," Youngkin responded. "It's the most important election in the nation, in my view, we have a chance to demonstrate that common sense conservative policies can, in fact, result in great outcomes."

    Youngkin responded by highlighting all of his accomplishments in the state.

    "That sounds like a stump speech," Bream responded. "Any way you would take those skills to running in 2024 for the presidency?"

    "Well, as I've said, I'm not in Iowa at the state fair," he responded. "I was actually at the Rockingham County Fair and yesterday, I was supporting one of our delegates outside Petersburg. I'm campaigning in Virginia for Virginians, not around the country."

    "I will leave that as the door still seems like maybe there's a little crack open there," Bream nudged.
