A recent poll conducted in two swing states revealed that Harris could win the election with Gov. Josh Shapiro by her side.
In Pennsylvania, 47 percent of voters said they would vote for Harris if she ran alongside Shapiro. Meanwhile, Trump and Vance received 46 percent of the votes.
However, only 42 percent backed a Harris-Shapiro ticket in Michigan, compared to 47 percent for Trump-Vance.
Shapiro has yet to comment on any speculation, praising President Biden on social media following his announcement.
"President Biden is a patriot who has served our country honorably in the Senate, as Vice President, and as one of the most consequential presidents in modern history. President Biden has gotten an incredible amount done to move our country forward, defend our democracy, and protect real freedom. I am proud to work by his side and am grateful for his leadership and his unwavering commitment to delivering for Pennsylvania — the Commonwealth that raised him."
The Pennsylvania governor did endorse the vice president, stating he would "do everything I can to help elect Kamala Harris as the 47th President of the United States."
Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer was also tested as a potential running mate for Harris with less favorable results.
In Pennsylvania, 42 percent said they would vote for Harris-Whitmer, while 47 percent chose Trump-Vance.
Results were tied in Michigan with both tickets receiving 46 percent.
