The Democrat released a statement asserting that for six months she had been evaluating "the best way to continue fighting for the American people and my values." Harris admitted that she seriously considered running in the gubernatorial election in her home state.
I love this state, its people, and its views. This is my home. But after deep reflection, I have decided that I will not run for governor in this election.
The former US Vice President added that in the near future, her career "will not be associated with an elected office."
Her withdrawal from next year's campaign leaves room for Harris ahead of the 2028 presidential election. The Democratic Party currently does not know whether the 60-year-old politician will try for the third time to become the first female occupant of the Oval Office.
