Odaily News Democratic presidential candidate Harris will visit key states next week with her vice presidential candidate, two people familiar with the matter said on Tuesday, suggesting that the selection process for her running mate is nearing the end. The high-stakes decision of who will be Harris' running mate has been in the spotlight since Harris became the Democratic general election frontrunner after Biden ended his campaign more than a week ago. Harris' campaign team said she will choose her vice presidential candidate by August 7 - but her choice may be announced earlier. One of the sources said Harris will announce her vice presidential choice before visiting a swing state next week. The list of candidates under consideration includes Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear, Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro, Arizona Senator Mark Kelly, Minnesota Governor Tim Waltz and Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg.
