Vice President Kamala Harris is planning the next move in her political career while keeping her options open for once she leaves the White House next year!
According to Politico, advisors and close allies of Kamala have indicated that she has stated, “I am staying in the fight.”
Though there has been no exact confirmation of what Kamala plans to do in the years to come at this time, her inner circle hints at her running for Governor of California. Reports read that Kamala has her eye on the position as Gov. Gavin Newsom’s limited term in office will be completed in 2026.
Sources state that Kamala is also open to running for office once more in the 2028 election despite her devastating loss this year to President-elect Donald Trump.
It has been indicated that Kamala’s overall influence has allowed her the opportunity to establish an independent entity where she can continue to travel across the country delivering speeches and maintain her political relationships if she chooses to run again.
According to The Grio, a recent poll confirms that Kamala successfully remains the favorite among high profile democrats in a potential run for office in 2028. With an average of 41% amongst those surveyed she has gained continuous support from fellow officials including Newsom, Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro, Maryland Gov. Wes Moore, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and others.
“Certainly, Vice President Kamala Harris was an extraordinary candidate and is an extraordinary vice president,” said Rep. Yvette Clark, D-N.Y., to theGrio. She adds, “Only time can tell what the lay of the land will look like, should the opportunity arise … to identify that nominee. I don’t think we’re in that space yet.”
Democratic strategist Joel Payne applauds VP Harris efforts in running for office, reflecting on how she was able to put together a monumental presidential campaign in only 100 days.
“She was put in an incredibly difficult situation,” he told theGrio. “[She] came up with a creative way to compete with Trump in the attention economy, raised money, brought the coalition of Democrats back together.”
