FILE - Former Arizona Rep. Gabby Giffords talks during a vigil remembering the 25th anniversary of the Columbine High School mass shooting, April 19, 2024, in Denver. Giffords was severely wounded in a 2011 mass shooting outside a grocery store.
Giffords spoke briefly about her long recovery from the shooting in 2011, which killed six people during a meeting with constituents at a Tucson grocery store. Harris’ other surrogates, including Pennsylvania House Speaker Joanna McClinton, framed the November presidential contest as a choice between Harris, who would sign a ban on assault weapons, and more gun violence under Republican Donald Trump, who gun-rights groups back.
Asked whether she was thinking about becoming the second lady, Giffords said, “later, later.” For her part, McClinton said “I’m not making those decisions,” but then put in a plug for Shapiro as a “people’s champion when it comes to issues around public safety” while calling Kelly someone who “we all hold in high regard.”
On Monday, Shapiro and Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer were scheduled to headline a campaign rally for Harris in suburban Philadelphia, while in North Carolina on Thursday, Gov. Roy Cooper talked about Harris’ many visits as vice president to the swing state won by Trump in both 2016 and 2020.Cooper, speaking in downtown Raleigh, said that “there are a lot of good people” Harris could choose as her running mate, but he wouldn’t address directly his prospects to join her ticket.
