Kamala Harris Vetting a Dozen Possible VP Candidates

July 24, 2024 · 4:49 pm ET · Leave a Comment

“Approximately a dozen individuals are being vetted as possible running mates for Vice President Kamala Harris,” CBS News reports.

“That number is larger than previously reported, and is an indication that the campaign is casting a wide net at the start of this process and isn’t winnowing the list yet.”

“The list of candidates includes several governors: Josh Shapiro of Pennsylvania, Roy Cooper of North Carolina, Andy Beshear of Kentucky, Tim Walz of Minnesota, J.B. Pritzker of Illinois and Gretchen Whitmer of Michigan.”

“Members of the Biden administration, including Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo and Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg are also being considered, along with Arizona Sen. Mark Kelly, among others.”
