Hillary Clinton is "50-50" on whether to run for mayor of New York City, billionaire businessman John Catsimatidis told The Real Deal real estate website.
Newsmax broke the story three weeks ago that Clinton was being prodded by Democratic insiders to take on incumbent Bill de Blasio in November.
"She is wildly popular among New Yorkers — so much so that were she to file, de Blasio would have to file his retirement papers on the same day," Hank Sheinkopf told John Gizzi.
The billionaire owner of Gristedes Foods, Catsimatidis, himself a potential candidate, said he spoke to Clinton about running.
"She didn't say never, she didn't say no. In my personal opinion, it's 50-50," the supermarket magnate told The Real Deal.
