According to reports, Rep. James Clyburn (D-SC) did not consider Vice President Kamala Harris for any leadership positions within the Democratic Party after 2028.
During a recent interview with Politico, the top contenders for the upcoming elections were discussed, with a focus on the Democratic party. The list of potential candidates included Senator Cory Booker of New Jersey, Governor Wes Moore of Maryland, Governor Gavin Newsom of California, Governor Josh Shapiro of Pennsylvania, and Governor Roy Cooper of North Carolina.
Clyburn affirmed that Vice President Kamala Harris would remain significant to the party when inquired about her.
Clyburn stated that the position of vice president automatically places her on the list.
Clyburn has been a member of Congress since the early 1990s and held the position of No. 3 House Democrat until last year. He also served as co-chairman of President Joe Biden’s reelection campaign. Many attributed Biden’s primary win in South Carolina to Clyburn, as his endorsement was seen as a strong influence.
In September 2023, Clyburn expressed his opinion that Harris is not an automatic choice for the Democratic Party’s presidential candidate. However, he did acknowledge her potential as a valuable player in the party’s future.
According to a recent poll, the chances of Kamala Harris winning a presidential election are deemed unlikely by a majority of voters. The poll revealed that 57% of voters believe that Harris winning the presidency is improbable. Interestingly, even 31% of Democrats polled expressed doubt over her chances of winning.
According to a recent survey, only 40% of respondents believe that Harris would make a capable president if she were to be elected to the Oval Office.
