US Senator Rubio, North Dakota Governor Burgum will not be Trump's running mate, sources say
MILWAUKEE -U.S. Senator Marco Rubio of Florida has been told he will not be Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump's running mate, four sources told Reuters on Monday.
While Rubio could likely have overcome that hurdle by moving out of state, some advisers were wary media coverage of such a move would be a distraction for the campaign. Rubio's boosters said that as a Latino he could potentially expand Trump's base. The former president is most popular among White Americans, though he has made significant progress among Hispanic Americans in recent years.
