Twenty-four hours after President Biden's blockbuster announcement that he was dropping his re-election bid, speculation is soaring over whom Vice President Kamala Harris will choose as her running mate. The president endorsed Harris immediately after suspending his own campaign, which ignited a surge of endorsements by Democratic governors, senators, House members and other party leaders in backing the vice president to succeed Biden as the party's 2024 standard-bearer.
Here are 10 top Democrats – in alphabetical order – whose names have been floated in the past 24 hours as potential Harris running mates. Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear The 46-year-old Beshear was elected attorney general in 2015 and four years later won election as governor in deep red Kentucky. Last November, he was re-elected by five points in a state Biden lost by 26 points in 2020. Beshear is following in his father's footsteps.
If named to the ticket, it's likely the governor would give the Democrats a boost in Pennsylvania, a crucial northeastern battleground state. Shapiro could also make history as the first Jewish vice president in the nation's history. Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz The 60-year-old Walz is in his second term as governor of Minnesota, a state that Democrats have reliably won in presidential elections but which is now considered to be competitive.
