  • Kamala Harris To Decide On 2020 US Presidential Bid Over Holidays
Democrat Kamala Harris, the first Indian-American to serve in the US Senate, said she will make a decision about a potential 2020 presidential bid during the upcoming holiday season.
 
 
"It will ultimately be a family decision," Harris, who represents the state of California, told MSNBC during an event in San Francisco.
 
 
"And over the holiday, I will make that decision with my family."
 
 
Harris, 54, was elected to the Senate in 2016.
 
 
She ranked fifth in a November poll of Democratic voters' preferred nominee to take on President Donald Trump's re-election bid, Politico news reported on Sunday. 
 
 
Harris has sent $25,000 to the Democratic parties in four early nominating states: Iowa, South Carolina, Nevada and New Hampshire. 
 
 
In October, she visited Iowa, South Carolina and Wisconsin to campaign for Democratic candidates ahead of the midterm elections.
