As of late August 2026, no major party figures have formally announced 2028 presidential campaigns, leaving the field open ahead of the November midterms. Potential contenders such as Vice President JD Vance, former Vice President Kamala Harris, California Governor Gavin Newsom, and Pete Buttigieg have signaled interest through public statements, interviews, and early positioning, while others like Senator Chris Van Hollen describe themselves as “kicking the tires.” The Democratic contest remains especially fluid with numerous governors and senators weighing bids, and Republican dynamics center on Trump administration allies. Announcements are widely anticipated to accelerate after the midterms and into early 2027, driven by fundraising, primary calendar shifts, and polling trends among party voters.
