If Kamala Harris, above, and Joe Biden lose this fall, becoming California’s governor would prove Harris a serious future presidential candidate later.For most of the early and teen years of this century, Kamala Harris was one of the weakest of vote-getters in Democratic-dominated California, even while she held three electoral offices in succession. Her marginal vote-getting performances have been mostly glossed over since she became President Biden’s backup as vice president.

Harris’s current prominence and greater name recognition would immediately propel her to the forefront of that field, which could be enough to get her into the runoff election two years from now under the state’s top-two “jungle primary” system. She would also have the services of the same campaign consultants who have helped current Gov. Gavin Newsom to win after win, gaining national prominence in the process.

Easily re-elected later, she set her sights on the Senate seat once held by Democrat Barbara Boxer and drew a Democrat for her runoff opponent. Harris easily beat former Orange County U.S. Rep. Loretta Sanchez but still got only 39% of the primary vote before easing through the runoff with 61%. Altogether, that’s an underwhelming performance in this heavily Democratic state.
