In a battle between two Californians considering Democratic runs for president in 2028, Gov. Gavin Newsom holds a slight edge over former Vice President Kamala Harris, according to a new poll.
The poll, conducted by Politico and The Citrin Center public opinion firm, found Newsom is the top choice of 25% of California’s Democratic voters in the 2028 Democratic primary, leading all prospective candidates including Harris, the 2024 Democratic nominee, who is supported by 19% of the state’s Democrats.
The two high-profile Californians are followed in the poll by former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg (13%), Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (10%), Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (4%) and New Jersey U.S. Sen. Cory Booker (4%).
An Ocasio-Cortez / Walz ticket would be a dream come true. I believe Newsom is too much of a neoliberal and opportunist to actually begin to revert the US into a progressive state, and would ultimately cause someone like DeSantis to be elected afterwards.
Walz/AOC would also work
A sack of potatoes tops Kamala Harris. She dropped out in 2020 because she would not pass the first round.
Democrats is somehow always able to find worse candidates than the last one…
I mean… that’s a pretty low bar, though, right? Kamala just set the world record for fastest time from hype to revulsion any politician has ever achieved and pulled her entire party along into the grave she dug herself.
I like what he’s doing right now. Mocking drumpf using his own stupid style of tweets is absolutely perfect and really seems to get under the pedo/rapist’s skin.
But I am not sure about him running for the presidency. I mean yes he’s better that the orange cancer… But can’t we do better? We need better!

Harris better not even try. Even less people would vote for a “loser”. No matter who was to blame for her crash & burn.
I’m done voting for Neoliberals.
Kamala was the last one.
The lesser of two evils will not save us.
Kamala is just looking for easy W’s, when she actually had to do work she decided to back out of “toxic” politics…
Lol at all this cute discussion like there’s going to be a 2028 election…
At the current rate things are going it’s unlikely we’ll have 2026 mid-terms.
A white, straight, male ofc it will Newsom that runs for dems 2028. Kamala for vp again perhaps?
Seeing as how Kamala has barely said a word in the last year, I think it is no surprise she’s sliding on the popularity scale. I’m guessing she’s planning on sliding into obscurity. Hope she proves otherwise.
