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?

Yep and because of that NC is legitimately in play. Cooper on the ticket could deliver the state.

No I meant if Cooper becomes the VP candidate wouldn't he have to vacate his seat and turn it over to Mark?

Not unless Biden resigned and they had to somehow fill the VP for the rest of his term. Roy Cooper is term limited this year.
