The Democratic primary that many hoped to avoid has unfolded, largely behind the scenes, with intense competition for the role of Vice President Kamala Harris' running mate. The final phase of the selection process has taken an unpleasant turn, with donors, interest groups, and political factions within the party debating their preferred candidates and highlighting the weaknesses of others.
Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro, considered a top contender, has faced significant opposition from progressives and even a senator from his own state. Despite these challenges, Shapiro, along with Senator Mark Kelly of Arizona and Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, met with Harris at her Washington residence on Sunday. Harris' campaign plans to announce the final decision by Tuesday.
Although the campaign declined to comment on these meetings, Harris is expected to begin her campaign tour with her running mate this week, starting with a rally in Philadelphia on Tuesday night, where Shapiro is likely to be present, regardless of the final decision.
Progressive groups have been particularly critical of Shapiro and Kelly, accusing them of being too conservative on key issues. Union leader Shawn Fain expressed concerns about Kelly's commitment to pro-labor legislation and criticized Shapiro's support for school vouchers. There is also division among major Democratic donors, with left-wing contributors voicing concerns about Shapiro's positions, particularly on the Israel-Hamas conflict.
The debate among Democrats has become heated, with some even questioning whether language used against Shapiro, who is Jewish, was antisemitic. Despite this, Shapiro remains a favored candidate among pro-Israel donors and business-friendly contributors.
Meanwhile, other candidates like Tim Walz and Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear have also gained support from various factions within the party. While Beshear has not been confirmed as part of the final interviews, he has been actively engaging with donors. As the decision looms, Walz and Beshear are set to attend separate fundraisers on Monday, with Harris' choice likely to be finalized by then.
