After Nomination, Harris Turns to V.P. Selection

After Nomination, Harris Turns to V.P. Selection

Vice President Kamala Harris officially became the Democratic nominee for president yesterday after a five-day virtual roll-call process ended. She is expected to announce her running mate today before kicking off a five-day campaign tour across seven battleground states. 

Harris has reportedly whittled down her choices from a broad bench of candidates to two leading contenders: Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz. Shapiro’s statewide approval rating (54%) is seen as an asset for a campaign seeking to secure Pennsylvania’s 19 electoral votes. Meanwhile, Walz has risen in betting markets amid viral media clips and speculated appeal to Midwestern voters. A running mate’s impact on elections may nonetheless be relatively small.

Recent polls show Harris closing in on former President Donald Trump’s lead, with Trump holding a 1-percentage-point national lead over Harris, down from his 3-point lead over President Joe Biden last month. See the latest polls here.

  1. Wonder if they will steal the election again. Trump won in 202 and will win again in 2024, but will the deep state let him become president?

  2. If we’re stupid enough to elect this dingbat of a feckless vessel, failed Border Czar, and descendent of slave owners… or let them rig/steal another election… then we deserve the results of our apathy and ignorance.

    May God continue to Bless and Protect our Great Republic.
