Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris is on the verge of announcing her vice presidential running mate choice. The decision is down to two finalists: Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro and Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, according to sources with knowledge of the matter.

Harris, expected to make the announcement by Tuesday, will introduce her running mate at a rally at Temple University in Philadelphia. This event will kick off a rigorous five-day, seven-city tour focusing on battleground states critical to the November 5 election.

Speculation initially circled around six potential candidates, but the list was trimmed down after Harris interviewed top contenders Walz, Shapiro, and Arizona Senator Mark Kelly. The finalized selection process followed detailed evaluations by her vetting team, including former Attorney General Eric Holder.
