Already, members of North Carolina’s congressional delegation are pushing their state’s governor, Roy Cooper. Pennsylvanians are championing Gov. Josh Shapiro, who won election two years ago by an almost 15-point margin in the crucial swing state. Some Senate Democrats have strong praise for their colleague Sen. Mark Kelly of Arizona.

Biden was one of the best presidents of my generation

Tim Walz gets my vote. His personality matches Kamala. He smiles and laughs. The both of them are a breath of fresh air after all the hate mongering by the other side. He has a good ability to articulate the issues off the cuff without hesitation. I thoroughly enjoy listening to him speak. I've listened to them all - he's the one. He balances out the ticket.

Beshar a no brainer, to me its overrated to pick someone because theyre from a swing state all these Democratic swing state governors will stump hard for Kamala within thier states anyway I like Beshar cuz he doesnt have the typical polite Democrat rhetorc

1:21 *how they are dealing with Palestinians. [Btw: “Dealing with” is one way of describing the sl—ghter of an entire people!]

And we used to laugh at the way leaders in communist countries were picked by the party bosses...........

WHY are all these 'articles' still mentioning Whitmer? She has said she's not going anywhere. IE: Not leaving Mich. and her position.
-
I don't understand why the 2026 Senate election would be considered "special", that Senate seat is up for reelection in 2026 regardless if Kelly is running in the race, wouldn't it just be considered a regular Senate election? The only thing special about the situation seems to be the power provided to the governor to appoint someone to fill the remainder of the seat until the next general election for that seat.
-
Please pick Roy Cooper rather than lose a governor from another state that needs to stay in place, Cooper is term limited and available and a great choice
-
It's gotta be Kelly. You cant lose governor's from red or purple states. Kelly will be replaced by a democrat and he's the most qualified and decorated.
-
I say its going to be Josh Shapiro, perfect match
-
Andy Beshear for VP 🇺🇸👍
-
Governor Walz works for me.
-
A Top military personnel as VP to Harris
-
You’re missing Walz!
-
No discussion of Pete Buttigieg? He fills a much more distinctive niche than "pro-choice governor from a swing state". More importantly, he is more charismatic and compelling of a communicator than everyone else mentioned here and already has ties to Harris. Plus, some voters feel that Harris is a bit faux-friendly, while even Buttigieg's detractors admit that he is perfectly happy to meet you as he is. Even if you think he is a flawed candidate, I think it's a disservice not to mention him.

Kamala Harris should choose AOC as her vice president. The two of them are the perfect match in human history😄
-
Tim Walz PLEASE!
-
I dislike that anyone other than Pete Buttigieg is being considered.
-
I hope Kamala will pick Andrew Beshear gov.of Kentucky.I love AndrewBeshear. born Nov29 1977. Thank you.
-
Pennsylvania Governor is best choice out of them all.
