Given a list of choices, South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem is the top guess as to who Donald Trump will choose as his running mate.
That’s according to our latest unscientific poll of 1,005 people at SharylAttkisson.com.
Thirteen percent (13%) guess Trump will select Noem.
Arkansas Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders and former Republican Presidential Candidate Vivek Ramaswamy tie for second place with 10% of the vote, while Sen. Tim Scott (R-South Carolina) takes third place.
More than one-third (34%) of respondents say they believe Trump will choose someone else for his Vice President, rather than 10 choices offered in the poll.
Democrat-turned-Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. recently announced California attorney Nicole Shanahan as his running mate. She was formerly married to a Google co-founder.

Why didn’t you include Ben Carson. He ticks ALL the boxes and has the best long term working relationship with Trump.
I liked none of the above. My thought process was Glen Youngkin
That survey should have included Byron Donalds.
Neither of my top 2 were on the list so I opted for none of the above.
It will be interesting to see who Trump selects.
Many of those on the list will likely be in the Trump administration but not VP. Noem is happy being SD Gov as is Sara Sanders in AR. Abbott and DeSantis are not full MAGA so I do not see Trump choosing either. Ben Carson will have a role if he wants it but again not VP as he is just too mellow and Trump needs a firebrand to help drain the cesspool. Lake is running for Senate but she has yet to win an election so not a proven entity. All those currently in the Senate and House need to stay there so Trump will have some MAGA supporters in congress. Vivek will be in the adminstration also in some capacity of economics or business.
My two were Kash Patel and Devin Nunes but now that Truth has gone public I think Nunes will remain there to get that on track.
If Kash is not the VP, I am certain he will be running one of the top agencies. Maybe Rick Grunnell, another top agency individual.
Looking forward to the day Trump announces his VP.
No Tulsi? That seems a fairly large omission.
Mike Pompeo is the most qualified to be VP. He has the experience, very intelligent, worked well with president Trump and is a great leader.
