California Democrats eye future leadership as Kamala Harris weighs gubernatorial run
Briefly

At the California Democratic Party convention in Anaheim, discussions of party leadership intensified as Democrats grapple with disappointing election results. With Governor Gavin Newsom terming out in 2026, the race to succeed him includes more than a dozen candidates. Former Vice President Kamala Harris, who did not attend the convention but sent a video message, is viewed as a potential front-runner should she enter. However, questions regarding President Biden's health and Harris's association with him complicate her potential candidacy.
Some political analysts say that Harris's fate could be intertwined with mounting questions about former President Joe Biden's cognitive health.
If Harris did decide to run, she would still be a very strong front-runner, but she'd probably have the most uphill fight of any front-runner that I've ever seen.
