USA, Washington: Vice President Kamala Harris is poised to announce her running mate very soon. With the shortlist narrowed down to three candidates, Harris, who is the official Democratic nominee for the presidency, is anticipated to reveal her Vice President choice this week.

Sources informed CNN that Harris interviewed the three potential candidates at her residence on Sunday. The announcement is expected to be made to the public on Tuesday, just before Harris speaks at a rally in Philadelphia.

The selection of the Vice President will mark a new chapter in Harris’ election campaign as she aims to prevent Donald Trump from returning to the White House.

With the announcement imminent, here is a look at the top three candidates for the Vice President position:

Kamala Harris' VP Pick - The Top Three Contenders

Three candidates have been shortlisted for the Vice President role: Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro, and Arizona Senator Mark Kelly.

Tim Walz - Governor of Minnesota

60-year-old Tim Walz is among the final contenders for Kamala Harris' running mate for the November elections. The Governor of Minnesota has gained popularity among progressives and younger voters for his criticism of former President Donald Trump. Despite his popularity and being just a year older than Harris, Walz's age may become a concern, especially given the recent issues surrounding President Joe Biden's age, which led him to withdraw from the race.

Mark Kelly - Arizona Senator

Mark Kelly, an astronaut and former Navy pilot, faces criticism from some organizations that typically support Democratic causes. For instance, certain labor groups have reproached Kelly for not backing proposed legislation to bolster union organizing. Despite this, several Democrats advocate for Kelly as VP, believing his selection could help counter Republican attacks on current immigration policies.

Josh Shapiro - Governor of Pennsylvania

Josh Shapiro, who is considered a leading candidate for the VP slot, has faced criticism for his policies and positions. Progressive groups and pro-Palestine activists have criticized Shapiro for his support of Israel and his handling of student protests related to the Gaza conflict. Additionally, Shapiro has faced scrutiny over his management of a sexual harassment complaint against a top aide and criticism from labor groups like the United Auto Workers (UAW) for his support of expanding voucher programs that would direct public funds to private schools.
