This scenario is HIGHLY unlikely, but just cooperate please.
Senator Bernie Sanders wins the Democratic Presidential nomination.
Congresswoman Donna Edwards of Maryland runs for the Democratic nomination for the U.S. Senate seat being vacated by Senator Barbara Mikulski. Edwards loses the Senate nomination primary to Congressman Chris Van Hollen.
Let us suppose that Donna Edwards had been high on Sanders list of possible nominees for Vice President.
Does the fact that Edwards lost the Senate primary election have any bearing on whether he picks Edwards or picks somebody else as his running mate?
Please discuss.
Thanks.
