Kamala Harris is sticking to her own timeline on a 2028 decision
CNN • • nation
Key Points:
- Kamala Harris is delaying a clear decision on whether she will run for president in 2028, focusing instead on supporting Democratic candidates in the 2024 midterms from her Malibu home.
- Harris is maintaining a low public profile with occasional social media posts and campaign appearances but has not made major policy speeches or engaged deeply with donors about a presidential bid.
- While some Democrats and potential candidates await her decision, many are preparing to run independently, with some dismissing the idea of deferring to Harris if she enters the race.
- Harris’s approach contrasts with other potential candidates like Gavin Newsom, who are taking more definitive campaign steps, though some Newsom supporters are hesitant to launch until Harris decides.
- Democratic strategist Donna Brazile suggests there is no urgency for Harris to announce her 2028 plans before the 2026 midterms, emphasizing her current focus on voter mobilization and fundraising efforts.
