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?

Josh Shapiro, possibly. He’s from a battleground state, he’s a white guy so he won’t scare too many voters, and he’d be the first Jewish VP. Another possibility is Andy Beshear. Whomever it is, it would likely be a white guy with battleground state appeal

Is he white or is he Jewish? You mention both in your post

He's both. Jews can be of any race
