Newsom says he won't run for president in 2028 if Harris does

–

Neutral summary

California Governor Gavin Newsom said in a CNN interview that he would not run for president in 2028 if former Vice President Kamala Harris enters the race. He argued that their voter bases overlap heavily and that a primary contest between them would be an electoral “gift” for Republicans. Newsom described a potential internal battle as “mutually assured destruction” given the similarity of their supporters, donors and campaign teams. Harris has not yet announced her plans for 2028, while other potential Democratic candidates include AOC and Pete Buttigieg.
