Mark Kelly could help Harris on a challenging issue: Immigration

Sen. Mark Kelly (D-Ariz.) is being considered as a potential running mate for Kamala Harris in the 2024 presidential election. Kelly has a unique perspective on border security and immigration, which could help Harris on an issue that Trump is likely to focus on in his campaign. Kelly has distanced himself from Democrats' handling of border security, advocating for more resources and better enforcement while also supporting comprehensive immigration reform. His record on the border could help Harris in both Rust Belt and Sun Belt states. Kelly has been a prolific fundraiser and has built a strong political brand in Arizona, where he performed well with Latino voters in his 2022 Senate race.
