The Democratic Party is set to begin voting Thursday to officially nominate Kamala Harris as its presidential candidate.
U.S. Sen. Mark Kelly from Arizona is considered to be a lead candidate as a potential running mate.
During a Wednesday appearance on MSNBC, Kelly did not say he was seeking the post, but said he’d work to help get her in office.
"I am going to be focused on making sure that Kamala is the next president, I am going to work as hard as I can. My wife, Gabby Giffords, she is already working really hard on this. She has been. She was in Pennsylvania most of last week, she was in Michigan. She’s going to be in other battleground states. I’m going to be traveling across the country," Kelly said.
The Democratic National Convention starts Aug. 19.
