Joe Biden is in the process of narrowing down his list of potential running mates, and his allies in the business community are weighing in with their favorite choices.
Since Biden announced earlier this month that he plans to pick a woman as his nominee for vice president, leaders of Wall Street, Silicon Valley and other industries have been reaching out to him and his presidential campaign about whom they think should join him on the ticket, according to people with direct knowledge of the matter.
Biden said Tuesday that he is looking to cut down his list of potential running mates in order to begin the vetting process, but he would not say whom he is considering. Notably absent from the names mentioned to CNBC is Stacey Abrams, who was the Democratic nominee in Georgia's 2018 gubernatorial race. She has publicly kept the door open to being a nominee for vice president."Everyone is pushing for their favorite woman," a Wall Street investor close to Biden said. This person also described how corporate leaders are highlighting Harris' experience as a senator and California's attorney general.
