Joe Biden has picked U.S. Sen. Kamala Harris as his running mate.

The senator is the first Black woman and first Asian American woman on a major political party's presidential ticket.

The former vice president and presumptive Democratic presidential nominee told his top advisors Tuesday morning about his decision and that he could make the announcement public as early as today.

Biden has spent months weighing who would be his vice president if he wins in November and had previously pledged to select a woman for the ticket. Others who had made the shortlist of VP contenders included Sen. Elizabeth Warren, Rep. Karen Bass, Florida's Rep. Val Demings and former Obama national security adviser Susan Rice.
