The challenge for any moderate or establishment wing politician in the primary will be Kamala Harris who will be the presumed nominee because the more establishment wing of the party prefers to stick with the line of succession.
Gavin Newsom would then be the next in line if Harris did not run, and then after that whoever the media anoints.
Whitmer can't really run on the progressive lane because she just doesn't appeal enough to that base. So in some ways Whitmer's best chance is to make herself the next in line appointee by following the Newsom approach of getting media coverage and name recognition and currying favor with Biden, Jeffries, etc.
