WASHINGTON — Vice President Kamala Harris is nearing a final decision in choosing her running mate and plans to meet with some of the top contenders in person over the next 72 hours, a source familiar with the process said.
Harris is expected to be in Washington, D.C., on Friday and this weekend, with no public events currently scheduled.
Several candidates on the shortlist have already reshuffled or postponed plans over the next few days, suggesting they needed to clear some time for a face-to-face interview.
