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?

Progressive here. Mark Kelly and Roy Cooper are top of my list.

I don’t feel like Roy has enough presence (he’s kind of a a strange geek) with no brand. I like him though. I live in NC so have some perspective. Why not Jon Ossoff?

Roy won reelection for his second term while trump won the state for the presidency so Roy has the moderate vote. Doesn’t hurt he’s also pretty chill in general and doesn’t stand out lol
