Former Vice President Kamala Harris has kept speculation alive about her political future by indicating she could run for president again in the 2028 election. In a recent interview with podcast host Sharon McMahon, Harris responded noncommittally when asked about another White House bid, saying, “I haven’t decided. I might.”
Harris was the Democratic nominee in the 2024 presidential election after President Joe Biden stepped aside and endorsed her candidacy. She lost that race to Donald Trump, but her comments this week suggest she has not closed the door on a future campaign.
The remarks, made during a conversation that also touched on her recently released memoir, 107 Days, mark one of the most explicit indications from Harris yet that she is considering a return to the national stage. However, she was clear that no final decision has been made and that the book was not intended to signal a political agenda.
Harris previously declined to run for governor of California in 2026, a decision that many political observers saw as preserving her ability to seek higher office in the future. As Democrats begin to position themselves for the 2028 presidential nominating contest, Harris’s comments are expected to fuel ongoing conversation about her role in the party’s future.
The Democratic field for 2028 remains open, with other potential contenders such as California Governor Gavin Newsom already drawing attention. Early rankings of Democratic hopefuls show a wide range of possibilities, and Harris’s tentative remarks have only added to the speculation.
For now, Harris continues to promote her memoir while engaging in public speaking and political commentary — but her future as a potential presidential candidate remains a developing story.
