As the 2024 United States presidential race unfolds, the focus has shifted to potential running mates for incumbent President Joe Biden and frontrunner Donald Trump.
Among the possible contenders for the Republican ticket are Elise Stefanik, a US congresswoman known for her staunch support of Trump and controversial views on immigration.
Another option is Tim Scott, the only Black Republican in the US Senate, who has been a vocal advocate for Trump and is making efforts to attract Black voters to the GOP.
J.D. Vance, a US senator who rose to prominence due to his book and conservative stances, is also in the mix.
Tom Cotton, a senator focused on foreign policy and a strong supporter of Israel, is under consideration as well.
Meanwhile, Doug Burgum, the governor of North Dakota, and Marco Rubio, a seasoned politician from Florida, are also potential vice-presidential picks for Trump.
With the election expected to be closely contested, Trump’s choice for vice president will play a crucial role in shaping the Republican campaign strategies.
