Ted Cruz is reportedly considering Carly Fiorina for vice president
Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) is considering former opponent Carly Fiorina as his pick for vice president, the former Hewlett-Packard CEO's spokeswoman told The Weekly Standard on Monday.
"We've already announced publicly that we're vetting prospecting VP nominees, but no selection has been made yet," Cruz's spokeswoman said after word got out. "When that decision has been made, we will share it."
Fiorina endorsed Cruz for president in March after dropping out of the race a month earlier.
