Former U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris has hinted that her political journey might not be over, leaving the door open for another presidential run.

In a new interview with the BBC released Saturday, Harris said she believes the United States will elect a woman president in the near future, and it could “possibly” be her.

“I am not done,” she said, when asked about her political future.

Although Harris has not confirmed whether she will seek the Democratic nomination in 2028, she brushed aside questions about her chances. “I have lived my entire career a life of service and it’s in my bones. And there are many ways to serve,” she said. “I’ve never listened to polls.”

Her comments come amid renewed media appearances tied to her new book 107 Days, released in September, which reflects on her experience stepping in as the 2024 Democratic presidential nominee after Joe Biden exited the race, a campaign that ended in defeat to Republican President Donald Trump.

In a separate interview with the Associated Press last week, the 61-year-old reiterated that another run remains “on the table,” describing herself as a key party leader focused on countering Trump and strengthening Democrats ahead of the 2026 midterm elections.

Asked directly whether she’s planning a 2028 bid, Harris replied, “I haven’t decided. Sincerely. I have not decided. I may or I may not. I have not decided.”

Pressed on whether she still wants to be president, Harris answered, “It’s a job I wanted to do,” but added that “the only way to do it is to run” and win.

Meanwhile, the 2028 race is already taking shape within Democratic circles. Several high-profile figures, including California Gov. Gavin Newsom, Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear, and Rep. Ro Khanna, are quietly testing the waters. Political analysts say as many as 30 Democrats could eventually join what’s expected to be a wide-open contest, according to AP’s report.
