In a recent poll conducted among Democrats, Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex, has been voted as one of the top choices for potential candidates. The survey asked participants which women they would consider voting for, and Meghan Markle’s name stood out alongside Vice President Kamala Harris, tying in popularity, and surpassing former Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton.
Adding to the Duchess’s potential political ambitions, Valerie Biden, the sister of President Joe Biden, publicly endorsed Meghan Markle as a viable candidate. The support from such a prominent figure within the Democratic Party further highlights the growing interest in Meghan’s potential future in politics.
Rumors have been swirling about Meghan’s political aspirations ever since she and her husband, Prince Harry, moved to Montecito in the United States after stepping down as working members of the British royal family in 2020. Many have speculated that she may consider running for a political position, with the Governor of California being one of the potential roles.
The poll’s findings, reported by Daily Mail, indicate that Meghan Markle’s consideration as a political contender could be a reflection of the Democratic Party’s limited choices. Experts in US polling suggest that Meghan’s inclusion in such discussions underlines a lack of strong alternatives within the party.
Since their move to the United States, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have been actively involved in public life. They welcomed their second child, daughter Lilibet, in 2021. The couple has been outspoken about their experiences as working members of the British royal family, addressing issues of mental health and media scrutiny in a Netflix documentary and through Prince Harry’s book titled “Spare.”
As Meghan Markle continues to gain attention as a potential political figure, her influence and impact on various social issues are evident. Her involvement in public life and advocacy for causes close to her heart have resonated with many, making her a compelling choice for those looking for fresh faces in the political landscape.
The timing of this US poll coincides with the upcoming visit of Prince William to New York. The Prince of Wales is scheduled to visit the US shortly after the birthday of his younger brother, Prince Harry, adding another layer of significance to the public’s interest in the royal family’s role in the political sphere.
