Republican supporters in Pennsylvania have shared their opinions on the possibility of Governor Josh Shapiro being chosen as Kamala Harris’ running mate. This comes as Shapiro is being considered a top contender for the position if Harris becomes the Democratic nominee in the 2024 election.
After attending a rally by former President Donald Trump in Harrisburg, Trump supporters expressed their concerns about a potential Harris and Shapiro ticket. Many felt that this pairing would not be the best choice for the Democratic Party. They believe that Shapiro’s involvement would ultimately hurt Harris’ chances of winning.
One supporter named Mark mentioned that if Harris and Shapiro were to lose, it would mean losing both of them from the political scene. Another supporter named Valerie stated that she would lose respect for Shapiro if he were to sign on as Harris’ running mate. Similarly, Sherry expressed her doubts about Shapiro’s ability to support Harris effectively.
Wayne, another supporter, emphasized that Harris’ choice of running mate would not change her past record. He criticized Harris for her policies and actions in San Francisco and California, suggesting that she does not prioritize America’s interests.
Before his potential involvement in the 2024 election, Shapiro served as Pennsylvania’s attorney general from 2017 to 2023. He was then elected as the state’s governor in 2022. Shapiro, who hails from Kansas City, Missouri, has established a strong reputation in Pennsylvania for his stance against antisemitism, support for law enforcement, and defense of abortion rights.
In addition to Shapiro, other individuals like Senator Mark Kelly, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear, and Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg are also being considered as potential vice presidential picks for Harris.
As the 2024 election approaches, the decision regarding Harris’ running mate will be crucial. The choice will undoubtedly impact the outcome of the election and shape the future of the Democratic Party. Fox News Digital has reached out to both the Harris campaign and Shapiro’s office for further comments on this matter.
