This article lists potential candidates for theDemocratic nomination forVice President of the United States in the 2016 election. Former Secretary of StateHillary Clinton, the2016 Democratic nominee forPresident of the United States, chose SenatorTim Kaine of Virginia as her running mate.[1][2] The formal nomination took place at the2016 Democratic National Convention. The Clinton–Kaine ticket ultimately lost to theTrump–Pence ticket in the general election, and Kaine returned to the Senate following the campaign.

Selection process

[edit]

By April 2016, Clinton had begun discussions with advisers and allies regarding her potential running mate, thoughBernie Sanders continued to challenge her in theDemocratic primaries.[3] According to campaign sources, Clinton did not have a particular running mate in mind, and did not feel pressured to pick a running mate designed specifically to appeal to Sanders supporters.[3] Clinton's low public approval ratings led many of her allies to recommend that she choose a running mate with the potential to inspire voters, but Clinton's campaign expressed confidence that her ratings would improve once the Republicans had selected a candidate.[3] There was relatively little public discussion about Sanders's running mate selection process.[4] As the2016 Republican National Convention took place roughly one week before the July 25–28Democratic National Convention, the Democratic presidential nominee was set to choose her running mate after the Republicans nominated their ticket ofDonald Trump andMike Pence.[3] Clinton's running mate selection process was led by campaign chairmanJohn Podesta andCheryl Mills,[3][5] while the vetting process was led by attorney James Hamilton.[6] In discussing her potential vice presidential choice, Clinton stated that the most important attribute she was looking for is the ability and experience to immediately step into the role of president.[7] In contrast to previous Democratic presidential nominees, Clinton allowed for a relatively open selection process, holding rallies with many potential running mates and placing little emphasis on keeping her short list confidential.[8]

Announcement

[edit]

On July 22, Clinton announced viaTwitter that she had chosen Tim Kaine as her running mate.[2] After the selection, Amy Chozick ofThe New York Times described Kaine as a "battleground state politician with working-class roots and a fluency inSpanish."[9] Like his Republican counterpart,Mike Pence, Kaine has experience both as a governor and a member of Congress.[10]

If the Clinton-Kaine ticket had won election, Kaine would have resigned from the Senate, with Democratic GovernorTerry McAuliffe appointing Kaine's replacement prior to a 2017 special election.[10][11] According to journalistGlenn Thrush, Kaine had been the preferred choice of Clinton since at least February 2016.[12]

Reported shortlist

[edit]

The Wall Street Journal reported on June 16, 2016, that Clinton's shortlist included the following nine individuals.[13]

According to aCNN report published on June 21, 2016, Clinton had narrowed down her list to no more than five contenders, including Kaine, Warren, and Castro.[14] However, a separate report inThe Washington Post released that same day stated that, while Clinton had begun vetting Kaine, Warren, and Castro, more than a dozen people remained on her list of possible running mates.[15] On July 7, 2016, CNN reported that Clinton had narrowed down her shortlist to five people: Brown, Kaine, Perez, Warren, andSecretary of AgricultureTom Vilsack. On July 12, 2016,The New York Times confirmed that the Clinton campaign was vetting formerNATOSupreme Allied Commander Europe, Retired AdmiralJames G. Stavridis.[16] Clinton also met with Colorado GovernorJohn Hickenlooper in mid-July, fueling speculation that he might be chosen as the vice presidential nominee.[7] After Republican presidential nomineeDonald Trump namedMike Pence as his running mate on July 15, Kaine and Vilsack emerged as the top two contenders, although other individuals such as Perez remained in contention.[7]

WikiLeaks List

[edit]

On October 18, 2016WikiLeaks released morehacked emails from Clinton Campaign ChairJohn Podesta. One of these emails Podesta sent Clinton was a "first cut of people to consider for VP" in March 2016. He wrote that this list had been generated with other top aides. Podesta organized the list of 39 contenders into what he called "food groups" apparently based around identities — Latinos, women, African-Americans, military brass, and business leaders.[19]
