Kamala Harris lost the 2024 Presidential Election in resounding fashion.
But Kamala has some bad news for her party.
And Kamala Harris is facing one decision that has Democrats sitting on pins and needles.
Kamala Harris ponders her futureÂ
The Democrat Party is leaderless at the moment.
Joe Biden is senile and in hiding as his term in office ends in disgrace following the pardon for his son Hunter Biden.
Kamala Harris as the sitting Vice President and 2024 nominee for President is the current de facto head of the party.
But Kamala may be looking to give that position up quicker than anyone realized.
CNN’s Edward Isaac Dovere reported that Kamala and her handlers are debating a 2026 run for Governor in her home state of California.
“Top aides and people close to Kamala Harris have divided over whether she should head home to run for California governor in 2026 — and it all comes down to whether they believe she could win the Democratic nomination for president in an expected competitive primary in 2028,” Dovere wrote.
If Kamala runs for Governor of California it would amount to her goodbye from national politics.
Kamala and her team view running for Governor of California as “more of a capstone than a stepping stone,” one source told Dovere.
What a run for Governor would mean
“If you’re thinking of running for president in 2028, the worst thing you can do is run for governor in 2026,” the source added.
This is a decision Kamala faces.
“Running for governor would be a step-down, and it would interfere with her ability to run for president again,” the source continued.
“I don’t know if she’s going to run for president again, but a shot at running for president again is worth giving up running for governor,” the source concluded.
Running for Governor means Kamala could end her career on a win.
Right now her last act in politics is losing to Donald Trump in a landslide and then presiding over the certification of Trump’s victory on January 6.
But Kamala may not want to abandon her Presidential hopes at the moment.
Kamala has told people in private conversations that “you haven’t seen the last of me,” and “I’m not going quietly into the night.”
And Kamala’s team has taken great pains not to blame her for the loss.
In an interview with Pod Save America campaign manager Jen O’Malley Dillon and other members of the campaign’s high command took great pains to say everything but Kamala was at fault for the loss.
That means Kamala could still run for President again in 2028.
“Usually Democrats banish their defeated candidates, but she actually would have a strong shot at a second act because of how well she ran compared to how her skeptics rated her prior to July,” one of her handlers told CNN. “She finished the race much more popular than she started it.”
But Kamala would face a crowded field with Governors Wes Moore, Josh Shapiro, Gretchen Whitmer, J.B. Pritzker, Phil Murphy, and Gavin Newsom in the field.
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) will likely run.
As will a big swath of the Democrat Senate caucus.
And if Kamala runs for President again she stands a very good chance of suffering the humiliating rebuke of her own party rejecting her in the primary, which would prove she only got the nomination in 2024 because she was a DEI candidate who the party elders anointed.
