Shapiro VP Speculation Grows Amid Controversy

Speculation is mounting that Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro will be selected as Vice President Kamala Harris's running mate for the 2024 presidential election. Philadelphia Mayor Cherelle Parker seemingly confirmed Shapiro as Harris's VP pick in a premature social media post. Shapiro has recently canceled several fundraising events in the Hamptons, fueling rumors of his impending selection. His candidacy has been contentious, with progressives criticizing his past views on Palestine and his connections to the Israeli Defense Forces, while facing accusations of antisemitism within the Democratic Party. Shapiro's campaign has stated that his views have evolved, and he now supports a two-state solution. Harris is expected to officially announce her running mate by Tuesday night, with a rally in Philadelphia planned for the following day.
