Former President Donald Trump has requested financial and other documents from eight potential vice presidential picks as he formalizes his vetting process. The contenders include J.D. Vance, Doug Burgum, Marco Rubio, Tim Scott, Ben Carson, Elise Stefanik, Byron Donalds, and Tom Cotton. Speculation is rife about who Trump will choose, with some observers suggesting that North Dakota Governor Doug Burgum could be a top contender. However, J.D. Vance is also considered a front runner, although he has stated that he is not lobbying for the position and has not discussed it with Trump. Ben Carson is another name being considered, with some supporters arguing that he would be a loyal and strong choice for Trump. Axios reported this on June 6, and further discussions continued until June 10.
