Sources close to Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) say he has expressed concern that Kamala Harris will select Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro as her running mate.
Speaking with Politico , several of Fetterman’s close aides said they reached out to the Harris campaign to express some of the senator’s concerns about her picking Shapiro.
“Fetterman’s advisers suggested to Harris’ team that the senator believes that Shapiro is excessively focused on his own personal ambitions. His reservations about Shapiro reflect a long-running rivalry between the two ambitious Democrats, who have risen on parallel tracks in a politically crucial state,” noted Politico .
