WASHINGTON — Kamala Harris is keeping her options open for another potential bid for the presidency.

In a recent BBC interview, Harris expressed confidence that a woman will soon lead the United States, hinting that it “possibly” could be her.

“I am not finished,” she confidently stated.

The former vice president remains undecided about a 2028 presidential run, but she brushed off any notion that her chances might be slim.

“Service is in my DNA, and there are countless ways to contribute,” she remarked. “Polls have never dictated my path.”

Harris has been in the spotlight recently, promoting her book “107 Days,” which reflects on her journey stepping into the role of the Democratic presidential nominee in 2024 after Joe Biden exited the race.

She ultimately lost to Republican President Donald Trump.

In an interview with The Associated Press last week, Harris, 61, also made clear that running again in 2028 is still on the table. She said she sees herself as a leader of the party, including in pushing back against Trump and preparing for the 2026 midterms.

Asked in an Oct. 17 interview with AP whether she had plans for a 2028 bid, Harris said, “I haven’t decided. Sincerely. I have not decided. I may or I may not. I have not decided.”

Asked specifically whether she still wanted to do the job itself, she used the past tense, saying, “It’s a job I wanted to do.” But she noted that the only way to do it “is to run” and win.

Meanwhile, political jockeying among Democrats for the 2028 presidential contest appears to be playing out even earlier than usual.

Several potential candidates are already taking steps to get to know voters in key states, including California Gov. Gavin Newsom, term-limited Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear and California Rep. Ro Khanna. Upward of 30 high-profile Democrats could ultimately enter the primary.
