Senator Kamala Harris running for 2020 presidency
Democratic Senator Kamala Harris said she’s running in 2020, aiming to be the country’s second Black president and the first woman to hold the office.
California Sen. Kamala Harris announced Monday that she is running for president, joining a fast-growing crowd of Democrats jumping into the race the 2020 race.
“I’m running for president of the United States, and I’m very excited about it,” Harris said.
Harris, 54, made the announcement on ABC’s “Good Morning America.”
The former California attorney general was elected to the Senate in 2016. Since then, she has worked to establish a national profile through her questioning of President Trump’s judicial nominees on the Senate Judiciary Committee.
Still, her record as a prosecutor and state attorney general have attracted new scrutiny from liberals as she has inched closer to a presidential run.
At 54, Harris is two decades younger than some of her competitors an age that enables her to appeal to the Instagram crowd without being painted as inexperienced,” she brings diversity to a party obsessed with racial and gender politics.
Harris’ announcement comes as a slew of Democrats have begun making plans to run for the White House in 2020.
In recent weeks, New York Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand, Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren, Hawaii Rep. Tulsi Gabbard and former San Antonio Mayor Julian Castro have moved forward with plans to seek the party’s nomination.
Other prominent figures, including former Vice President Joe Biden, Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders and former Texas Rep. Beto O’Rourke, are also mulling possible campaigns.
