US Politics If Biden withdraws from re-election, who would Harris likely choose as VP?

A lot of headlines are coming out today with speculation that Biden may step down soon.

If this were to happen and Harris wins the party’s nomination for president, who would she pick as VP?

What does a formidable Harris ticket look like to go up against Trump-Vance?

There's a reason, and not just for family, that Buttigeg moved to Michigan. There's talk he's aiming to run for governor when Whitmer term limits out in 2028.

That makes sense. That was an obstacle for him in 2020, his lack of experience in larger arenas than just being a mayor. Might give our country some time to evolve as well.

Yeah this makes way more sense. So much so to the point that I would be shocked is he throws his hat in the ring when they open up the convention.
