Democrats Already Lining up for 2028 Presidential Race in Early Voting States
UNITED STATES, JUL 13 – Jim Clyburn expressed confidence in Gavin Newsom's 2028 presidential prospects amid early Democratic primary activity in key states with over 10 prominent candidates preparing to run.
- On Wednesday, July 9, 2025, Rep. Jim Clyburn said `good about his chances` regarding Gavin Newsom's 2028 bid at St. Paul First Baptist Church in Laurens, South Carolina.
- After losing the White House and Congress in 2024, the Democratic Party struggles to repair its brand and fill a leadership vacuum, implying a challenging rebuild ahead.
- Nearly half a dozen Democrats visited South Carolina, New Hampshire and Iowa, including Walz's March 14 town hall and Pritzker's May fundraiser, signaling early campaigning efforts.
- Appearing with Newsom, Clyburn encouraged local Democrats to be energized by visits from 'presidential candidates', and Antjuan Seawright said 'It can mean a boost'.
- With no clear front-runner, some operatives believe the 2028 Democratic primary could see over 30 candidates entering, despite votes not happening for two and a half years.
