That is contingent on what Harris would do, the optics would be really bad if she became president and wanted to run and they chose someone else. If she explicitly doesn't want to run, it'd be Newsom. If she did, they'd be locked into her or else risk losing a ton of black female votes in the elections (the most reliable D demographic). As for the Republicans, it'd likely be De Santis. |
Lets be honest, while Harris is half black, there isn't that many black female votes for any of the parties to really care about so I doubt that would be a consideration. Basically the party would get behind whoever they believe have a good chance of winning based on the candidates from the GOP.
As for the GOP, I would not put to much stock on it being Desantis. He really is not liked that much within his own party and Haley probably has just as much of a chance as him to be their front runner.
