Vice President Kamala Harris is on the verge of securing the Democratic presidential nomination, with virtual voting among delegates scheduled to conclude soon. The Democratic National Committee aims to finalize the nomination process ahead of the convention in Chicago later this month. Harris is reportedly close to announcing her running mate, with key candidates such as Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro and Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear in the mix; both have recently canceled events, raising speculation about the impending announcement. Meanwhile, Ohio Senator J.D. Vance is campaigning heavily on border security issues and criticizing Harris's policies, linking them to the rise of fentanyl trafficking. The political landscape is heating up as both parties gear up for the November elections, with Harris and her selected running mate expected to embark on a tour of battleground states thereafter.
