[Beastly Boy]

1. Hillary

[leftieNanner]

28. 😂

[MistakenLamb]

2. Joe said Harris and she is the most qualified

[James48]

3. Pete Buttigieg

I’m ready for Pete. Put him up as a choice, please.

[Sympthsical]

7. A Kamala/Pete ticket would excite so many Democrats

Pete on the trail.

Pete debating JD Vance.

[ViewObsessed]

20. Pete will win over the male vote!

[Stinky The Clown]

21. Please explain your answer. I may be taking a wrong inference for your meaning.

[ViewObsessed]

24. We need men to vote blue

Pete would be amazing at that

[Stinky The Clown]

31. Do you think he is the best Democrat to do that? If so, please help me understand why.

Asking seriously. I never heard any one else suggest this. I'll take anything that can help.

[philf99]

30. Definitely deserves consideration

Would be a generational contrast. The young and articulate Buttigieg vs the grump OLD man

[Polybius]

4. Gavin all the way

Or Hillary.

[GreenWave]

11. Are Gavin and Harris from the same state?

[Polybius]

12. Yes, but she is rich

She can quickly buy a house in any of the other 49 states and claim it as a residency (like Cheney in 2000). He could too, but then he'd probably have to resign as Governor.

[GreenWave]

13. Thank you!

I noticed Wyoming had around 98% voter turn out that year too, but no one else feels that needs some investigation.

[Polybius]

15. Wyoming has become the most insane state

Trump got just a tad under 70% of the vote there in 2020. It was Trump 69.94% and Biden 26.55%.

[Retrograde]

32. Why does Harris have to be the one to move?

Admittedly, Newsom would have a hard time being governor if he were from some other state, but Harris is a born Californian and maybe she wants to stay one.

Unless you think Harris - the current VP - should stay in the VP slot

[Polybius]

33. For the reason you mentioned

I am not sure he can remain as CA Governor if he switches his residency to another state.

[BeyondGeography]

5. A governor from a swing state

But it’s not going to happen. Why would anyone want to run against Harris right now and potentially destroy their future in the party, not to mention tarnish Trump’s new opponent?

The only “race” will be who runs with Harris. My vote is for Shapiro.

[Nimble_Idea]

6. you too smart

[BeyondGeography]

8. Exciting times

Nice pic there.

[Nimble_Idea]

17. pic been there since the 2020 campaign

[lindysalsagal]

16. Most candidates lose before they win. I adore Shapiro and

Losing to Kamala would establish him for the future. But will his Jewish heritage be a problem? It wasn't in PA for governor. But PA is not the south or Midwest. So, although he'd be a great potus or potus vpotus, could he win?

[Nimble_Idea]

18. i would calm all your worries heart

for there is a black and jewish senator in GA

[lindysalsagal]

19. Great!

[LeftInTX]

25. Kamala's husband is Jewish, so I think with Shapiro it could be an issue. Normally it wouldn't.

But the GOP make it about "Jews"....Plural...

[Oldvet]

9. Hillary

She is the best choice now

[Nimble_Idea]

10. Thank you Renew_Deal, this will let the rest of DU understand the future.

In time when they all gather up, the blue wave cometh.

[ARandomPerson]

14. After Biden's endorsement, the Democratic party would burn to the ground if it's not Harris.

The presidential nominee is Harris. No question.

Now the only question is whom she picks to be her running mate.

[Tree Lady]

22. I like Whitmer but voted for Kamela

because of the way this went down with us not getting to vote for the change. Also I think if we picked a white woman we would lose the black vote if it wasn't done through primaries.

[In It to Win It]

23. If Joe Biden had announced last year that he wasn't seeking a second term, I would say Shapiro

Under the circumstances that we have today, Kamala Harris

[KentuckyStiffRipple]

26. Michelle Obama. Hopefully with Biden already out, she changes her mind.

She has by far the best chance of winning and saving democracy.

[mvd]

27. Harris has earned it

And it would be a much more seamless transition.

[Wicked Blue]

29. Bernie!
