Vice President Kamala Harris has indicated to donors that she is considering future political ambitions, potentially running for governor of California in 2026 or for president in 2028. She has stated, 'You haven't seen the last of me. I'm not going quietly into the night,' suggesting she will not retire from public life after her current term. Her team reportedly does not want her final official act to be certifying Donald Trump's win over her, four years after January 6th. CNN reports that Harris views the gubernatorial race as a 'layup,' indicating she believes it would be an easy win.
