Kamala Harris creeps in as potential California governor candidate
NY Post ^ | 4/13/26 | Titus Wu

A new text poll is asking California voters if they would write in former Vice President Kamala Harris on to the ballot for the California governor’s race.

The poll, according to shared screenshots, lists three to four questions on the California Democrat.

It asked about the chances of the voter writing in Harris’s name, and then it asked in the scenario that Harris was actually running a write-in campaign, who the voter would elect.

The survey then asks the voter whether he or she thinks the process of writing someone is easy or not.

According to the California Secretary of State, a candidate must file a statement of write-in candidacy between April 6 and May 19.

Then write-in nomination papers must be circulated and left with a county elections official in that same time period.

Such an effort to qualify would be easy for Harris, who early in the election season was anticipated as the dominant favorite had she chosen to jump into the governor’s race.

“Takes a whopping 65 signatures!” commented Paul Mitchell, vice president of Political Data Inc, a bipartisan voter data firm.

News of the poll comes coincidentally right when leading Democratic candidate Rep. Eric Swalwell dramatically quit the governor’s race after reported accusations on Friday of sexual misconduct.

Competitors are jostling for Swalwell’s voters, but the leading Democratic candidates to take those votes — former Congresswoman Katie Porter and billionaire Tom Steyer — could also have baggage of their own, observers noted.

Swalwell may have been torpedoed by the Democrats to boost Stoyer’s numbers. Very real possibility.

Thanks, haven’t heard that great quote in years. Kamalalalala is stuck with herself but we’re not.

“Kamala Harris” and “creeps” used in the title.

Coincidence...I think not!

I hope his mouth isn’t open, because I cannot stand that guy’s whiny, weird voice. It’s like his two vocal cords are tuned differently, or something.

You actually think RULES apply to Democrats.

Especially in California.

Steyer is an unhinged nutcase in the last stages of fatal TDS. Eventually he will be put away in a private mental hospital

She still owes a lot of people a lot of pineapples she squandered during her big run to be the first unknown nobody in the White House. She needs to go home to Jamaica/India or Canada. Her days of living on the backs of Americans are over.

“Kamala Harris creeps in as potential California governor candidate”. Kamala’s been creeping in her whole life.

Swalwell is now resigning from Congress.

There has to be a good reason the Democrats are sacrificing a pawn. What is their plan?

She can’t creep in. Her cackling would give her away.

I’m trying to figure out why a Republican would want to win the Governors race? The state gov’t would still be overwhelmingly Democrat, what reforms or corrections could he possible make? I am afraid California, Washington, Oregon, Illinois and NY are lost causes.

LOL.
Made me think back to the days of Gray out Davis and that multi clown car recall election stuff.

I think over 100 people threw their hat in the circus ring.

“I’m trying to figure out why a Republican would want to win the Governors race? The state gov’t would still be overwhelmingly Democrat, what reforms or corrections could he possible make?”

None and Arnold found that out and essentially threw in the towel his last few years in office so that hopefully Hollywood would get over it and let him back into the club when he termed out. The only tool a Republican Governor would have is the veto, but unless the morons in this state vote out the Sacramento RAT super majority that isn’t even available.
