It is Washington’s favorite parlor game … and now it may be the Keystone State’s as well.
Who will Vice President Kamala Harris select as her running mate on the Democratic presidential ticket in the fall?
Could Gov. Josh Shapiro be tapped for the No. 2 spot?
Pennsylvania has only had one Vice President in the nation’s history – George M. Dallas, a former Mayor of Philadelphia who served under James Polk (1845-49). The Commonwealth has had three native sons run for the office on major party tickets but end up short – Jared Ingersoll (1812), Richard Rush (1828) and John Sergeant (1832) – but none over the last 192 years.
Speculation has also centered on Govs. Roy Cooper (N.C.), Gretchen Whitmer (Mich.) and J.B. Pritzker (Ill.), as well as Sen. Mark Kelly (Ariz.) as possible choices.
What do you think? We’d like to know.
Our poll is open to readers of PoliticsPA through Tuesday morning at 6 a.m. ET.
Thanks for participating.
