Will Kamala Harris Run in the Presidential Election?
Kamala Harris said in a BBC interview that she has not finished deciding whether to launch a presidential campaign. She added that she is waiting for the right moment, but maintains that she has not taken a final decision.
She also stated that she believes that her great‑grandchildren will “certainly in their life see a woman on the presidential bench.”
Tough Odds for the Democrat
The BBC reporters reminded that Harris lost to Donald Trump in the last election. They also noted that she would have slim chances if she ran, suggesting that her prospects were poorer than even Hollywood star Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson’s.
