When Shapiro was asked if he has submitted vetting materials, he directed that question to the campaign.On stage Friday he praised Harris' policies and didn't react when speakers touted him as a V.P. pick. On Tuesday the Philadelphia Democratic Party voted to formally endorse not only Harris but Shapiro as her running mate."The road to the White House goes through Pennsylvania, and going through Pennsylvania to put this guy as the vice president is a slam dunk without question," said Democratic City Committee Chairman Bob Brady. "We can be really proud."There are now eight contenders in the game to be Harris' running mate, a number that has grown significantly since Monday.
"I've been asked this and answered this many times - I'm going to say the same thing," Shapiro said when asked about joining the ticket. "The vice president has a deeply personal decision to make as to who she wants to run with, who she wants to govern with."Inside Abington Pharmacy, many we spoke to said, politics aside, it's nice to see a hometown guy - born and raised in Abington - as a possible vice presidential candidate.
