Duckworth’s emergence comes as some Biden allies say Dodd is taking a primary role in the search. It is also unfolding as Republicans prepare for fierce attacks on whoever is chosen, believing that person might present an easier target than Biden. https://t.co/lSVUrzgu7Q — PolitiTweet.org

"The protests that followed the killing of Floyd have been described as an inflection point for the country. That conclusion may be premature, given how deeply embedded structural racism is in America’s history." Read @danbalz: https://t.co/LEvGamcJGp — PolitiTweet.org

NEW: As Biden pushes ahead with his running mate search, Duckworth has quietly emerged as a serious contender, according to three people with knowledge of the selection process, one of several developing dynamics as the search enters its final weeks. https://t.co/lSVUrzgu7Q — PolitiTweet.org

Bianca Nikol Roberson, an 18-year-old black student, was shot dead by a white man while driving in the Philadelphia suburbs. Her mother wonders why few in an area newly animated by George Floyd’s death cared about one of their own. Read @wpjenna: https://t.co/Xe2AITDsp0 — PolitiTweet.org

"Joe Biden Tuesday seized a moment when the coronavirus is resurging to stress how poorly he says President Trump has handled the pandemic and to promise that as president he would take a different path." Dispatch from Wilmington, via @AnnieLinskey: https://t.co/yZLsFJ8GO3 — PolitiTweet.org

Biden, at the end of his presser, is asked whether he has been “tested for some degree of cognitive decline.” He replied: “I’ve been tested and I’m constantly tested.” He adds that he “can hardly wait” to compare his “cognitive capability” to Pres. Trump’s. — PolitiTweet.org

Sean Sullivan @WaPoSean

Notable: Biden, who had previously said he hoped to name a running mate by August 1, now says “early August” and can’t guarantee Aug. 1. In recent weeks, Dems have privately wondered whether he would be able to meet his 8/1 target. https://t.co/9nHrVOcszQ — PolitiTweet.org

President Trump has spent the last month lapping Joe Biden on the campaign trail. Biden has proceeded cautiously, far less seen and heard. And it’s working, via @michaelscherer, as the campaign remains a referendum, not a choice. https://t.co/dWKpgo0HwR — PolitiTweet.org

Worth a watch, ICYMI. Hard-hitting questions from @IAmAmnaNawaz and @VickyNguyenTV -- including one that generated some news from @JoeBiden and prompted his campaign to release staff diversity data reporters have been pursuing for months. — PolitiTweet.org

Sean Sullivan @WaPoSean

Under public prodding, the Biden campaign released figures today showing it is 35% people of color and 53% female. Initial reactions to those numbers from some Dems was tepid. “I’d love to see a staff that reflects the base,” said Aimee Allison. https://t.co/cSJLqgxtVu — PolitiTweet.org

Sean Sullivan @WaPoSean

Just in: The Trump campaign has also provided some data on the diversity of its staff: -52% of all full-time staff are women -56% of senior staff are women -25% of senior staff are people of color -% of full-time staff who are people of color was not made available. — PolitiTweet.org
