Michelle Obama Leads Democratic Candidates

After Vice President Kamala Harris’ crushing defeat in the 2024 election, the Democrats are left with a serious leadership vacuum. That’s evidenced by the fact that the Democrat with the best odds to win the 2028 election, former First Lady Michelle Obama, has never held, or even run for, public office.

Obama (+500) is followed closely by California governor Gavin Newsom (+550) but then there’s a steep drop-off to failed 2016 candidate Hillary Clinton (+1400), talk-show host Oprah Winfrey, who would presumably run for the Dems, and Harris (both +2500).

DeSantis Seen as Main Challenger for GOP Nomination

When it comes to potential Republican candidates, Florida governor Ron DeSantis (+800) is seen as the main challenger. DeSantis was briefly the favorite to win GOP nomination in 2024 before Trump big-brothered him out of the way. His official 2024 campaign got off to a rocky start when his official launch on Twitter was plagued with malfunctions, and it never recovered thereafter.

Also high-ish on the list for potential GOP candidates are former Hawaii representative Tulsi Gabbard (+1000), pundit Tucker Carlson (+1400), and former South Carolina governor and ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley (+2500), who was the last person to abandon the fight against Trump for the 2024 Republican nomination.
