Harris Faces Mixed Reactions to 2026 Governor Run

News summary

A recent Politico/UC Berkeley Citrin Center poll indicates that California political insiders and policy influencers are largely indifferent to former Vice President Kamala Harris running for governor in 2026, with only 22% expressing excitement. Registered Democratic voters show greater enthusiasm, especially among Black voters, while Latino and Asian American voters are less supportive. Republican and independent voters mostly express negative sentiments such as irritation and hopelessness. Analysts note that Harris's past statewide electoral performances have not been overwhelmingly strong, and insider indifference could pose a challenge. Harris has not officially decided on a gubernatorial run and is also considering a presidential bid in 2028. The poll reflects a broader lack of enthusiasm among key demographics, mirroring recent electoral trends.
