Gavin Newsom Says He Won't Run for President in 2028 if Kamala Harris Does
· Telemundo McAllen (KTLM)
California Governor Gavin Newsom made a surprising announcement, stating he will not launch a bid for the White House in 2028 if former Vice President Kamala Harris decides to run again. 'I wouldn’t run if she runs,' Newsom told CNN in an interview that aired Monday night. Newsom mentioned that competing against Harris, a fellow California Democrat who served as state attorney general before becoming a senator, would be an 'electoral gift' for everyone else. 'They would enjoy it immensely. Mutual destruction assured. It serves no greater good. Why would I do this if I weren't trying to serve some greater good? There would be no advantage whatsoever,' said Newsom, who has been considering a presidential run. Newsom, who has not run for president before, acknowledged that a 'campaign approach' would be to argue that Harris, who ran in 2020 and 2024, has already had her chance and has previously run for the presidency.
