This seems to suggest it might be Shapiro, though the stop in Arizona also suggests Kelly.

edit: guys, this would be the first VP I've met if it's Shapiro, get excited with me!

I hope it isn't Shapiro because his Zionism will tank a lot of her younger support

I'm a PA voter and while I'll still vote for Harris-Shapiro, I'd prefers someone who was less of a Zionist.

(Also for the record, I'm a Jewish anti-zionist)

Especially with Harris' platform really walking back her policy positions.

Every winner walks back their campaign promises. Don't believe everything they say.

The dems will 100% go right of Harris for VP

I'm not American, and was confused for a second, because of Ben Shapiro (lawl)...

I’m pretty sure Shapiro has a high approval rating in the state. Would definitely help deliver PA I would think.

Edit: decided to quickly look it up, he does have pretty good approval there

“He’s not too radical, he actually seems to try to work with both parties,” said Michael Paletta, 64, a registered Republican who supports Trump but also approves of Shapiro.

“He’s been running for president since he became attorney general eight years ago,” said Paletta, who lives in Mars, Butler County. “He’s as good as anyone else. He’s at least younger and he understands, he’s not 80 years old.”

It's definitely not sounding like an all-woman ticket, which disappoints me. This seems like the perfect opportunity.

But I guess their internal polling suggests otherwise.
