Maryland Gov. Wes Moore attempted to quash talk that he could be a candidate for vice president this year, saying Monday that he’s focused on his job as governor.
But asked by reporters if he would turn down the job if offered by new Democratic front-runner Kamala Harris, Moore said: “I plan on being helpful in any way that I can to support the vice president. However, I do not plan — I have no interest.”
Pressed if he would turn down an offer to join the ticket, Moore repeated: “I have no interest in the job.”
Following President Joe Biden’s decision on Sunday to withdraw from the presidential election, Moore has been among several names floated as possibilities for Democrats. Now that Harris, the vice president, appears to be consolidating support to become the nominee, talk has turned to who she will pick for a running mate.
