Vice President Kamala Harris is in the final stages of selecting a running mate for her upcoming campaign, with a fast-tracked process that typically takes months but now must be completed in just a few weeks. The vetting process is being led by former U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder and his team at Covington & Burling.
The potential candidates being considered include Arizona Sen. Mark Kelly, Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro, Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear, and North Carolina Gov. Roy Cooper. These choices aim to provide demographic balance for the historic ticket, which would be headed by a woman of color.
