Kamala Harris says she is ‘thinking about’ running in 2028 presidential election

Harris said she is weighing a third presidential bid as early polling shows her with a name-recognition edge over other Democrats.

  • On Friday, April 10, 2026, former Vice President Kamala Harris signaled she might run for president in 2028, telling Rev. Al Sharpton at the National Action Network convention, "Listen, I might," and repeatedly saying, "I'm thinking about it."
  • Harris cited her four years as Vice President, stating, "I know what the job is, and I know what it requires," while arguing the "status quo is not working" for many Americans.
  • A standing ovation and chants of "Run again!" greeted her, with Sharpton noting she earned more than 75 million votes in 2024, surpassing totals from former Democratic Presidents Barack Obama and Bill Clinton.
  • Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro, Illinois Governor JB Pritzker, and other potential 2028 contenders also attended the convention, highlighting the early, crowded nature of the Democratic primary field.
  • While Harris leads some early polls, no clear frontrunner has emerged for the 2028 nomination as party leaders focus on the 2026 midterm elections, which they argue could impact democracy's trajectory.
