Vance 'overwhelmed with gratitude' to be Trump's VP, joining campaign trail immediately

Sen. JD Vance, R-Ohio, said he is "overwhelmed with gratitude" to be chosen as former President Trump's running mate for the 2024 presidential election.

"What an honor it is to run alongside President Donald J. Trump. He delivered peace and prosperity once, and with your help, he'll do it again," Vance wrote on X a few hours after the first night of the Republican National Convention wrapped up.

"Onward to victory!" he continued.

Vance will be hitting the campaign trail immediately, according to Fox News' Aishah Hasnie. He is scheduled to participate in a big fundraiser in Oklahoma on July 26 hosted by U.S. Sen. Markwayne Mullin.
