Harris releasing book on presidential run: ‘107 Days’
Former Vice President Kamala Harris is set to release a memoir in September detailing her truncated 2024 presidential campaign, she announced Thursday.
Harris and Simon & Schuster announced the book, titled "107 Days," will offer insights into the former vice president's campaign against President Trump.
“Just over a year ago, I launched my campaign for President of the United States,” Harris said in a video announcement of the book on Thursday. “107 days traveling the country, fighting for our future — the shortest presidential campaign in modern history.
"Since leaving office, I’ve spent a lot of time reflecting on those days and with candor and reflection, I’ve written a behind-the-scenes account of that journey," she added. "I believe there’s value in sharing what I saw, what I learned, and what it will take to move forward.”
Harris launched her presidential campaign in late July 2024, days after then-President Biden announced he would no longer seek a second term amid intense scrutiny among Democrats of his ability to win the election. The former vice president rejuvenated the Democratic base and donors, though she ultimately lost to Trump by a decisive margin.
The book announcement comes one day after Harris announced she would not run for governor of California in 2026, leaving open the question of when or if she will seek elected office in the future. She said Wednesday she will get more active in helping Democrats this election cycle.
