The current article title is explicit that there will be an announcment, but it would be funny to just see all the hopefuls touring next week without one.

Kamala was so quick to find a VP candidate that I'm impressed.

Now I wonder, who could it be?

I mean there's less than 100 days until election day. This is a speed run.

Ngl I don’t hate it. Campaign season is an order of magnitude too long in the states.

Our campaigns are so long here because of the enormous amounts of money involved. There is so much money that minor candidates can make a living being a candidate, touring the country and staying in really good hotels and eating in good restaurants, all on the donor's money.

That sounds better than actually getting elected

There is a term for it called "Perennial Candidate"

Mark Kelly would be a solid pick

It's times like these where I really wish Sync had a proper spoiler support.
