    It would never be Porter because she’s from California, the same state as Harris. Technically the 12th amendment says the president and VP must be reside in different states, though I’m sure Harris has established residency in DC by now. The more salient issue is that the democrats will want to use the VP choice to help win a swing state, or lock in a state they consider necessary for electoral math.

    Whitmer was supposedly on the short list, but she said she would decline an invitation to be VP.
