As Vice President Kamala Harris prepares to announce her running mate, several top candidates have made significant changes to their schedules in anticipation of the highly awaited decision.
Among the contenders on Harris' shortlist for vice president are Govs. Josh Shapiro of Pennsylvania and Andy Beshear of Kentucky, as well as Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg. All three candidates have adjusted their plans ahead of the announcement.
Shapiro, who had originally planned to attend three fundraising events in the Hamptons in New York over the weekend, has since altered his schedule. His spokesperson explained that the governor's trip, which was organized weeks ago and included fundraisers for his campaign committee, will no longer include the Hamptons visit.
Beshear, too, will be absent from two events this weekend: a visit to Jackson Purchase Distillery on Friday and the annual Fancy Farm Picnic in the state on Saturday.
In a similar vein, Buttigieg has shortened an event scheduled for Friday at Ivy Tech Community College Kokomo.
The public can expect to see Harris alongside her chosen running mate for the first time on Tuesday in Philadelphia, marking the beginning of a four-day tour across battleground states.
