WILMINGTON, Del. Joseph R. Biden Jr. has told allies that he has interviewed every finalist in his vice-presidential search, and his advisers are planning an announcement for the middle of the week, people briefed on the selection process said on Monday.
In a sign that the choice is now in Mr. Bidens hands alone, the four-member committee that screened his potential running mates is said to have effectively disbanded its work is complete, Biden allies said, and there is little left to do except for Mr. Biden to make up his mind.
Mr. Bidens political team has prepared rollout plans for several of the finalists, and he is expected to announce his decision as soon as Tuesday, though more Democrats expect it to come on Wednesday. The former vice president, however, has not been known for his punctuality so far in the presidential race and the timeline could well slip again.
Mr. Biden has spoken with the vice-presidential candidates through a combination of in-person sessions and remote meetings over the last few weeks, but the exact timing and circumstances of all of the meetings are not clear. Close advisers to Mr. Biden said he had been directly in touch with all of the leading candidates.
Some of the strongest contenders have been
Senator Kamala Harris of California;
Susan Rice, the former national security adviser;
Senator Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts; and
Gov. Gretchen Whitmer of Michigan, who met with Mr. Biden on Aug. 2.
Mr. Biden and his team have also closely considered
Senator Tammy Duckworth of Illinois,
Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham of New Mexico and
Representatives Karen Bass of California and
Val Demings of Florida.

She’s just one more Commie. Doesn’t matter.
It would be hilarious if he chose a white male and the liberal media flip out in real time.
He should just pick Jill as VP. She is already running things for him, and will be the one running things if he gets elected. Just end the farce.
Certainly not for awhile - this is the only news coverage he gets, really.
Same list of names that has been out there for weeks.
Michelle America?
Can’t.
Constitution says POTUS and VPOTUS must be from separate states...............
The should find a guy who thinks hes a chick.
It would be hilarious to see the Left fall all over itself to not criticize the choice.
Wouldn't this normally go without saying? Seriously.
> He will pick Mayor Pete then duck and cover. <
Thats probably the worst pick Biden could make. Therefore I hope Biden picks Mayor Pete.
I dont think it will matter much anyway. Shortly after the Democrat convention Biden will resign for health reasons. Then the DNC will get to pick the ticket. My money is on a Hillary-Michelle ticket.
Who is Emma Nent?
Is she black, or just half dot or feather Indian?
Old Joe cant even pick matching socks.
We all know Biden likes to touch women directly..............
"Me, my extended family,amy aides and my other insiders grifters dont want a VP.
We want the graft all to ourselves. The Obamas got away with a bundle while hunter was grifting,
you never heard of Aunt Imminent?
Wouldn’t that be something.
The day You-Ain’t-Black Biden announces his VP, DOJ indicts a few of the high-level obozo officials for spygate crimes. This would be along the lines of POTUS in Europe scheduled to meet Putin and the day before the meeting, Mueller just had to indict a bunch of Russians for the Russian hoax who would never be turned over to the US for prosecution. Watching the media implode would be fantastic.
That's why Michael LaVaughn Robinson continues to be predicked
I wonder if he will molest her immediately during the announcement, or wait until the later photo op.
Funny you should mention that. My sources in the Biden camp tell me this gentleman is on Bidens short list for VP. Hes Pennsylvanias secretary of heath. So he has considerable experience making virus problems worse.
