Vice President Kamala Harris’ team is reportedly consulting former Attorney General Eric Holder and his firm to help vet potential picks to serve as her No. 2.
Former Attorney General Eric Holder Holder and his firm Covington & Burling LLP will help review potential vice presidential contenders for the newly rebranded Harris for President campaign, two sources told Reuters.
The move comes as Vice President Kamala Harris finds herself racing against the clock to figure out a running mate ahead of the Democratic National Convention in Chicago from Aug. 19-22.
That gives her mere weeks to make the consequential decision.
Holder is an alumnus of the Obama administration, where he served as the nation’s first black attorney general. He had also been a staunch defender of President Biden — at least in the public domain.
