Michigan governor: have not spoken with Biden about being his running mate

Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer said on Tuesday that she had not had any conversation with presumed Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden about being his running mate for the 2020 election.

Whitmer, speaking in a Washington Post online interview, said she also had not supplied any documents to Biden or his team, though she added she does speak regularly with him.

Whitmer, who has traded jabs with President Donald Trump, a Republican, about Michigan's handling of the coronavirus pandemic, is widely seen as a potential running mate for Biden and is co-chair of his campaign.
