Californians are not overly enthusiastic but still supportive of former Vice President Kamala Harris running for governor of the Golden State, according to a new poll released Tuesday from U.C. Berkley’s Citrin Center and Politico.
The survey asked both insiders of California politics as well registered voters in the state to gauge the enthusiasm for Harris, who has not officially announced her next move since losing her bid for the White House to President Donald Trump. The poll asked respondents to choose which word best describes the emotion a Harris gubernatorial run elicits, with the options being “joyful,” “mostly excited,” “indifferent,” “irritated,” “outraged,” and “hopeless.”
The enthusiasm for Harris as governor was much higher among the electorate than of the politically connected. Thirty-six percent of insiders said they were “indifferent” to a Harris run, while 33% of registered Democrats said they were “joyful,” with another 41% saying there were “mostly excited.”
