Within hours, Kamala Harris Harris will be considering the candidates to be her vice president. The Democratic leader is expected to reveal it on Tuesday and wants to surprise everyone by appearing on stage with the chosen one. Three names are being considered, three people with whom she met this weekend. With Harris, the Democratic duo of man and woman that she has been repeating in her modern era is reversed.

The first name that has been mentioned is the senator for Arizona Mark Kellywho is believed to be the best-known and most valued candidate according to polls. A former Navy aviator and astronaut, he entered politics in search of greater gun control after his wife, a former congresswoman, was wounded in a shooting in 2011. He has won twice in Arizona, a state bordering Mexico, although there are concerns that his move to the front could upset the narrow majority in the Senate.

Traveling to Pennsylvania, where this long-awaited joint Democratic rally will take place, its governor, Josh Shapirothe youngest of this trio and on the rise within the Party. He swept the ‘autonomous’ elections two years ago, beating his Republican rival by more than 14 points. His stance on Gaza, being Jewish, would play against him.

The one who would best fit the progressive agenda would be the governor of Minnesota, Tim Walz. More leftist than Harris and belligerent with the Republicans, he could attract the “workers” of the Midwest, but he is a great unknown for the rest of the United States. In short, we are hours away from the most critical decision of the inexperienced – although accelerated – campaign of Kamala, right now virtually tied with Trump.
