On Sunday, after numerous Democratic lawmakers and donors expressed their support for replacing the elderly president, Joe Biden announced he would not seek reelection.
The pressing question now is: Who will step up as the Democratic nominee in Biden’s place? Many officials predict that Kamala Harris, the current vice president, is the leading candidate to secure the necessary support for her presidential bid.
If this is the case, who will become the future vice president? CNN anchors mentioned the governor of Pennsylvania, Josh Shapiro, as a potential choice for the Democratic Party, but appeared to say there could be “some risks” in putting him on the ticket because “he’s Jewish.”
