I think we’ll see markedly different demographics calling this election this time round. The never/non/anti/anyone-but-Trump crowd called it last time without enthusiasm for Biden; Harris could easily do much better. The Rest is Politics went into Biden’s courting of the black vote with his past and the appointment of Harris; what could she do for her VP pick? Aside from a mid-Western old white guy.
Why pull a popular senator from a western purple state who isn’t term limited when there’s a popular governor (Roy Cooper) from an eastern purple state who is?
Any Arizona Democrat can warm a seat in the Senate. Kelly can do much more for the Democratic party at the national level than at the Arizona level. His background is too appealing to leave him at the state.

What’s his brother doing now? Put him in the Senate seat
