No major-party figures have formally declared 2028 presidential campaigns as of late August 2026, leaving a wide field of potential contenders positioning ahead of the November midterms. Vice President JD Vance and former Vice President Kamala Harris lead early polling and market pricing among Republicans and Democrats, respectively, while other names including Pete Buttigieg, Gavin Newsom, Marco Rubio, and Ron DeSantis have signaled interest through interviews, early-state travel, and exploratory comments. Only minor candidates such as Dan Greaney and Royce White have announced, with broader declarations widely anticipated after the midterms and into 2027. The DNC has finalized an early 2028 primary calendar beginning in South Carolina, adding structure to the timeline, though constitutional term limits bar President Trump from another run and keep outcomes fluid until formal filings occur.
