Harris's VP List: Whitmer and Cooper Decline Bids
Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer and North Carolina Governor Roy Cooper have announced that they will not be running for the position of Vice President on Kamala Harris's ticket. The contenders for the role now include Kentucky's Andy Beshear, Minnesota's Tim Walz, Pennsylvania's Josh Shapiro, and Arizona's Mark Kelly.
North Carolina Governor Roy Cooper withdrew from the VP vetting process due to concerns over his Republican Lieutenant Governor potentially assuming control. Minnesota Governor Tim Walz has emerged as a potential candidate, praised for his ability to appeal to moderate voters in the rural Midwest and his criticism of the Republican ticket.
As the search for the Vice Presidential candidate continues, the list of potential candidates is narrowing, with a deadline for the selection set for August 7th.
