Mark Halperin: Who’s Up for the Democrats in 2028?
The midterm elections are less than nine months away, which means the long presidential campaign will likely kick off in the coming months. While no clear successor to the term-limited President Trump has emerged on the Republican side, Democrats have been lining up to stake their claim for months already.
After a resounding defeat in the 2024 election, will voters be more interested in former Vice President Kamala Harris a second time around? Would they elect the first Jewish president in Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro? Or would they prefer a more conventional candidate, a white man like California Gov. Gavin Newsom?
2WAY’s Mark Halperin joins Michael Smerconish to break down the Democratic hopefuls and who he thinks has the best odds of winning the primary election.
