And just like that, the Democratic party has gone all-in for Kamala Harris – who did so poorly in the 2020 election that she dropped out before the primaries. Just hours after Biden’s campaign manager insisted he wasn’t leaving the race.

Lefties from the Clintons, to the Progressive Caucus, to Trump assassination jokester Reid Hoffman, to Alexander Soros, are now firmly behind Harris.

Now the question turns to who’s going to be her VP pick. Newsweek suggests these as top-5 candidates:

Pennsylvania Governor Josh ShapiroA rising Democratic star, Josh Shapiro is often floated as a possible running mate for Harris. He governs a major battleground state and could help Harris make inroads among voters in the Keystone State.North Carolina Governor Roy CooperRoy Cooper’s governorship has been a sign of hope for Democrats in the Tar Heel state.Michigan Governor Gretchen WhitmerGretchen Whitmer’s name has long been floated as a possible presidential candidate, and a Harris-Whitmer ticket would mark the first all-women ticket in history, which Pitney described as “intriguing.”Kentucky Governor Andy BeshearAndy Beshear impressed many Democrats when he won a second term in the conservative state last year.California Governor Gavin NewsomNewsom has become one of the most nationally recognizable figures within the Democratic Party.

According to Polymarket, Shapiro is the top contender.

Harris issued a statement following her endorsement, which reads like Joe isn’t about to serve out the rest of his term:

“On behalf of the American people, I thank Joe Biden for his extraordinary leadership as President of the United States and for his decades of service to our country. His remarkable legacy of accomplishment is unmatched in modern American history, surpassing the legacy of many Presidents who have served two terms in office.

“It is a profound honor to serve as his Vice President, and I am deeply grateful to the President, Dr. Biden, and the entire Biden family. I first came to know President Biden through his son Beau. We were friends from our days working together as Attorneys General of our home states. As we worked together, Beau would tell me stories about his Dad. The kind of father—and the kind of man—he was. And the qualities Beau revered in his father are the same qualities, the same values, I have seen every single day in Joes leadership as President: His honesty and integrity. His big heart and commitment to his faith and his family. And his love of our country and the American people.

“I am honored to have the President’s endorsement and my intention is to earn and win this nomination. Over the past year, I have traveled across the country, talking with Americans about the clear choice in this momentous election. And that is what I will continue to do in the days and weeks ahead. I will do everything in my power to unite the Democratic Party—and unite our nation—to defeat Donald Trump and his extreme Project 2025 agenda.”
