San Francisco District Attorney Kamala Harris will run for the Attorney General of California in 2010. She’s probably THE Indian-American politician to watch out for in the future because of her proximity to President-elect Barack Obama. Harris, like Obama, comes from a multicultural background - with an African-American father and an Indian mother. She appeared frequently as a surrogate on TV news programs for the Obama campaign through 2008.
Another Indian-American, Subodh Chandra, had unsuccessfully run for Ohio AG in 2006. However, Chandra remains another politician from the community who worked with the OBama campiagn and could gain a higher profile in the years to come.
