- Kamala Harris will be interviewing potential running mates this Sunday, WaPo reported.
- Top contenders include Sen. Mark Kelly, Gov. Josh Shapiro, and Gov. Tim Walz.
- Harris spent her Saturday deeply reviewing each candidate, WaPo reported.
Vice President Kamala Harris is sitting down for final interviews this Sunday to nail down her 2024 running mate, the Washington Post reported.
People familiar with the matter told the Post that three candidates have been invited to meet with Harris: Sen. Mark Kelly of Arizona, Gov. Josh Shapiro of Pennsylvania, and Gov. Tim Walz of Minnesota.
The outlet reported that it's unclear if the other remaining contenders, including Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg, Gov. JB Pritzker of Illinois, and Gov. Andy Beshear, will also be invited to meet with the vice president.
Following President Joe Biden's announcement that he would be exiting the 2024 presidential race, Harris announced her intention to secure the Democratic nomination and secured enough delegates to do so just one day after Biden dropped out.
The Post reported that Harris spent her Saturday at home with lawyers, including former Attorney General Eric Holder, examining each VP candidate and comparing their strengths and weaknesses.
It is still unclear who will emerge victorious. Some speculated that Shapiro would be picked after the Harris campaign told Politico she would stage her first rally with her running mate in Philadelphia on Tuesday.
Journalist and editor Graham Starr first reported on X that Shapiro's Wikipedia page has seen dozens of edits, while Walz and Kelly have seen few. Though this phenomenon could indicate a future VP pick, as it has done in the past, many of the edits to Shapiro's page concerned criticism he received regarding past remarks about Palestinians and his stance on the Israel-Palestine conflict.
Walz, meanwhile, is a favorite among labor advocates. As the VP candidate, he could provide Harris a competitive advantage among rural and working-class voters, Business Insider previously reported.
Representatives for Harris, Kelly, Walz, and Shapiro did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
