As rising stars in the California Democratic Party, Kamala Harris and Gavin Newsom dodged a potentially bruising campaign battle in 2015 when she chose to run for U.S. Senate and he announced his candidacy for governor.
This week, Newsom said he would avoid an even bigger potential head-to-head fight with Harris over the White House.
The California governor repeated that he would not run against Harris, standing by a comment he made last year that has new relevance after President Biden's performance in the June presidential debate left many in the party calling for him to leave the race.
Although Biden has vowed to continue his bid for reelection, a decision Newsom has steadfastly supported, Harris and the California governor have been widely mentioned as potential replacements for the Democratic presidential nomination. As vice president, Harris appears to be the front-runner, and has the most legitimate claim given that she's already on the 2024 ticket.
“Of course,” Newsom said when asked whether he would still decline to run against Harris. “Yes.”
If it holds, his decision could save the party and its donors from having to choose between California's two most prominent politicians.

“KH RISIS”?! From what?
Good to see that the LA Times is already conceding the election to Donald Trump. If Kamala ran and won, poor Gavin would be waiting until 2032.
It's as if instituting leftist policy was so... "Natural" as to bear no accountability for its perpetrator.
Gavin Newsom likes Huey Lewis and tge news!

Expect the long knives to come out for Harris; they won’t want to go to the trouble of forcing Bidumb out just to have him replaced by the Cackler.
I was gonna say something more explicit about circling the porcelain throne but just won’t go down — but, you get the point.

Willie Brown’s Indo/Caribbean mistress is a RAT “rising star”? The RATS are worse off than we think they are. ROTFL. She’s all they’ve got? What about a Clintoon and Big Mike or Oprah ticket?
They’re both losers insofar as the restoration of this Republic is concerned. They booth are highly incompetent socialist morons. Of course, that’s much like the zombie presently using the oval orifice’s potty.
What a gaggle of ugly monsters is the Democrat Party. And what a stupid collection of Junior Democrats are the traitorous RINOs.
The Democrats told him to lay low for now. His turn will come in 2028.
California is a mess b/c of this idiot’s “leadership” - he will bring California’s failed policies nationwide.
