"Harris, the nation's first Black female vice president and the Democrats' presidential nominee in 2024, earned the only standing ovation and the largest crowd of any other 2028 prospect this week."
"Sharpton noted that Harris earned more votes in her losing 2024 campaign than even former Democratic Presidents Barack Obama and Bill Clinton."
"Harris has raised the possibility of another presidential bid before in the 15 months since she left office."
"Some in the party have shifted their focus to a new generation of Democratic leaders given Harris' struggle in the last presidential contest."
Kamala Harris expressed her consideration of a presidential bid for 2028 during the National Action Network's annual convention. She received significant support, including chants of 'run again!' from the audience. Harris, the first Black female vice president, previously ran in 2024 and garnered more votes than past Democratic presidents. Despite her past struggles, she has launched a political action committee and is actively supporting Democrats across the country, while some party members are looking towards new leadership.
