WASHINGTON _ Kamala Harris is making a hard push on television. Amy Klobuchar is pitching herself as a voting rights champion. And Stacey Abrams is openly campaigning for the job.
As the Democratic Party closes rank around its presumed presidential nominee, an entirely new race is taking shape: the one to become Joe Biden's running mate.
After wrapping up the primary earlier than expected, Biden has been holding high-level conversations with aides about his vice presidential options, and has taken the unorthodox step of publicly stating that he will select from a list of six to 10 women. He's planning to empower a committee to formally begin the vetting process sometime this month.
