Overview
- Harris, speaking Friday at the National Action Network convention in New York, told Rev. Al Sharpton she “might” run and is “thinking about it.”
- She made no formal announcement and said she knows the job after four years as vice president, adding she is weighing who can best serve the American people.
- The crowd gave her a standing ovation with chants of “run again,” and her session drew the week’s largest audience at the conference.
- The NAN gathering brought several potential 2028 Democrats, including Pete Buttigieg, Josh Shapiro, JB Pritzker and others, to court Black leaders and test messages.
- Early polls reported by multiple outlets show Harris leading a still‑forming field, with the primary season not expected to ramp up until after the 2026 midterms.
