   Gamblers are betting that #KamalaHarris will pick #JoshShapiro as her running mate.

   👉🏾 Who will win the 2024 Democratic vice presidential nomination? https://www.predictit.org/markets/detail/8089/Who-will-win-the-2024-Democratic-vice-presidential-nomination

   On #Threads, others claim #Kamala has picked #Shapiro, but they do not cite their methodology or sources, and I do not think they are journalists or high-profile bloggers/vloggers.

   Cenk (a vlogger from Young Turks) has indicated, based on a congressional source, that Shapiro is probably the vice presidential candidate.

     @Pineywoozle I am not a fan of Cenk, but somehow, he still has access to politicians when it comes to getting scoops (especially amongst Congressional Democrats, which is puzzling).

     I mentioned Cenk because he is the only high-profile Vlogger who indicates that Shapiro will probably be Kamala’s VP candidate.

     Everyone else is only sure that it is a governor (I wanted Pete Buttigieg, but I guess he did not make the cut).

     @darnell Cenk is a lying cunt. Why would you ever quote him. He’s taken millions of dollars from Republicans. He’s so toxic the Justice Democrats scrubbed him from their origin story even though it was him and his 4 million Roemer Rethug monies that were a huge part of their start. #farL

     @Pineywoozle 😂🤣😂 I understand!

     Oh, #Beto would have been an awesome pick!

     I am surprised Beto was not on the shortlist.

     I do hope he runs for governor of #Texas again!

     I would move back if he won as the current #GOP governor is destroying the state by refusing to massively upgrade the electrical grid.

     @Waitnwallflower @clpkbc @Pineywoozle I heard something like that too but it was not verified as Secret Service (so I have my doubts).

     @clpkbc @Pineywoozle @darnell

     My son thinks it is Beshear bc he saw something that said his security detail was increased yesterday which is also something he read about Vance before he was announced.
     I didn't see the reporting, and wondered if all being vetted might get increased detail....but we'll hear soon enough.

     @darnell He really would! He has great chemistry with her, matches her energy and forthright attitude and has that roll up up your sleeves get the fucking job done stance that Kamala has. And dear lord would they be easy to do that Obama/Biden snarky memes with. #USPol #Beto #Harris #Harris2024

     @claralistensprechen3rd She will probably win Michigan, but if Harris needs Pennsylvania to win the Presidency (so does Trump).

     @darnell If Harris wants to carry Michigan she won't go with Shapiro. Sorry.
