Chicago – July 30, 2024
Kamala Harris, the leading Democratic candidate for the upcoming November 5 election, is set to announce her choice for vice president by the following Monday. This announcement came shortly after President Biden decided to step down from his reelection campaign. Harris plans to reveal her vice presidential candidate just before she starts a tour across several key battleground states that could either vote Republican or Democrat in the election.
Harris’s decision has been highly anticipated, and her choice of running mate is crucial to her campaign. Although her team has not yet responded to questions about this, sources say the potential candidates for the vice president role include Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear, Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro, U.S. Senator Mark Kelly from Arizona, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, and Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg.
The tour with her new running mate is expected to begin later in the week following the announcement.
