Major candidates for the 2028 presidential nomination have not yet formally announced, with serious Republican and Democratic contenders instead engaging in early positioning ahead of the November 2026 midterms. Vice President JD Vance leads early Republican polling and is expected to consult President Trump on a potential bid afterward, while Secretary of State Marco Rubio has stated he has no current plans to run. On the Democratic side, former Vice President Kamala Harris tops prospective primary surveys, and Governor Gavin Newsom recently indicated he would not challenge her. Exploratory activity and water-testing trips to early states continue, but formal declarations are widely anticipated only after the midterms through the first months of 2027, consistent with historical patterns of lengthening campaign timelines. Minor candidates have filed or formed committees, yet these have not shifted broader trader focus.
