Kamala Harris and Gavin Newsom are both drawing low levels of enthusiasm for potential 2028 presidential bids, with the California governor holding a lead over Harris among the state’s Democratic voters.
The September survey, conducted by the UC Berkeley Citrin Center and POLITICO, found that 37% of registered California voters said they would be excited about a Newsom presidential run, compared with 28% who said the same about Harris.
The figures mark a substantial decline from the February-March survey, when 48% of registered voters said they were excited about a Newsom bid and 41% were excited about Harris entering the race.
The poll comes as Newsom vowed not to run against Harris, telling CNN he would not challenge the former vice president.
“I don’t know if she runs but we’ll see,” Newsom said in Montana. “But I wouldn’t run if she ran.”
The term-limited governor, who is also under a DOJ investigation along with his wife, is publicly weighing a run for the White House in 2028.
Newsom has been a frontrunner alongside Harris, so much so that he is dominating among Democratic voters.
Some 61% said they would be excited about Newsom running for president, compared with 39% who said they would not.
