Kamala Harris says she may run for president AGAIN after complete failure in 2024
“If I listen to polls, I would have not run for my first office or my second office, and I certainly wouldn’t be sitting here in this interview.”
“If I listen to polls, I would have not run for my first office or my second office, and I certainly wouldn’t be sitting here in this interview.”

Kamala Harris gave an interview to the BBC in which she said that she may again run for president. Speaking to Laura Kuenssberg, Harris indicated that 2028 could see her running for president again.
"In terms, then, of what is next for you," Kuenssberg asked, "you write very powerfully about the differences that many women have made to your life, whether that was your meeting with Angela Merkel, or the experience of growing up with your extraordinary mother, or the stories of your baby nieces, Amara and Leela, when are they going to see a woman in charge in the White House? In their lifetime?"
"For sure," Harris said.
"Could it be you? Have you made a decision yet?"

"But you say in your book, 'I'm not done,'" Kuenssberg said.
"That is correct," Harris confirmed. "I'm am not done. I have lived my entire career a life of service, and it's in my bones, and there are many ways to serve. I've not decided yet what I will do in the future, beyond what I'm doing right now."
"But you've been very clear that it's a possibility you might run again to become president," Kuenssberg said. "And in my experience, interviewing politicians when someone says 'I'm not done,' it means they are thinking seriously about running. When you look at the bookies' odds, they put you as an outsider, even behind Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson. I mean, is that underestimating you?"
"I think there are all kinds of polls that will tell you a variety of things," Harris said. "I've never listened to polls. If I listen to polls, I would have not run for my first office or my second office, and I certainly wouldn't be sitting here in this interview."
Harris lost her last presidential run to President Donald Trump in 2024 after a 107-day campaign that began when her boss President Joe Biden dropped out of the race. Biden nominated Vice President Harris on the same day he gave up his hopes for a second term.
Biden's decision came after the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee, which was preceded by an assassination attempt on the life of Trump in Butler, PA on July 13, 2024.
Harris has been attempting to position herself as a political outsider since losing the race against Trump. She's put out her book and been on a book tour, tickets for which are in the hundreds of dollars. She also declined to enter the California gubernatorial race, saying that she wanted to travel the country and listen to people.
