Governors Roy Cooper of North Carolina and Andy Beshear of Kentucky — directly overlapped with Ms. Harris as attorneys general. Now-Gov. Josh Shapiro of Pennsylvania came into the job as she was leaving her post, and as Mr. Trump entered the White House.
I would not call any of those choices terrific. And the last thing North Carolina or Kentucky needs is to lose their Democratic governor.
Also, I think a ticket with two women on it would be a better answer. Choose Warren or Ocasio-Cortez. There are other options too.
