Sen. J.D. Vance, R-Ohio, has long been on former president Donald Trump 's short list as a running mate for November's election.
Should Trump choose someone else — North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum, New York Rep. Elise Stefanik, South Carolina Sen. Tim Scott, and Florida Sen. Marco Rubio also reportedly are in the mix — Vance said Wednesday he would be disappointed if he didn't get the nod. Vance and Ohio nursing home developer Brian Colleran played host to Trump at an event earlier this month that raised more than $5.5 million, according to Axios.
Trump was asked about Burgum and Vance as running mates in an interview with Newsmax on Tuesday but did not give a date when he would announce his decision.
