The results of the U.S. midterm elections are roughly finalized, and all walks of life are turning their attention to the 2028 presidential election. It will be the first presidential election in 12 years without the direct participation of U.S. President Trump, symbolizing a new situation in the White House political situation. According to Reuters polls, the most popular Republican successors on the table, Vice President Vance and Secretary of State Rubio, are also supported by the Republican public; the Democratic Party is focusing on two political potential stocks in their 40s, Georgia Senator Jon Ossoff and former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg, to compete for the top position.

Reuters surveyed 1,705 adult citizens across the United States on the 9th about their preferences for the 2028 presidential candidate. The results show that 45% of Republican supporters think Rubio is an "excellent" candidate, which is about the same as 43% of Vance. Although neither of them has announced their candidacy, Rubio's attitude is much lower-key in comparison. Trump has yet to express his support for who will take over.

Among Democratic supporters, Ossoff and Buttigieg both have 29% "excellent" support. Neither of them has stated whether they intend to run for president in 2028. Former Vice President Harris Harris and outgoing California Governor Gavin Newsom had 23% support.
