Who Should Hillary Clinton's Vice President Be? The Winner Is...

Who will Hillary Clinton's Vice President be? There's been speculation for literally months and months and months. But the rumors and reports have been swirling in recent weeks as Hillary and her team vet various contenders.

Starting on June 9, you had the chance to submit the names of people who you wanted to see be considered, in our unofficial VP contest. Then in the weeks that followed, you voted week after week to narrow the field of 35 names down to 20, then to 10 and finally to five.

Over the past week, you've been voting for a winner. And now the results are in.

First, keep in mind that I am not affiliated with Hillary or her team, so these polls have not been used by the campaign.

So let's get right to it. The winner of our unofficial contest, the person who you want to see Hillary choose as her running mate, is...

ELIZABETH WARREN

To give some stats on how she did over the course of this contest: Senator Warren tied for the most submissions sent in. When voting began, Round 1 saw 55.3% of voters choose her. During Round 2, she received 55.2% of the votes. Starting with Round 3, you could only vote for one candidate, and Warren had 41% of the votes, but it still kept her in first.

In the final round to choose the winner, 49.8% of participants chose Warren. Here is how the results played out over the past week:

Elizabeth Warren: 49.8%
Cory Booker: 16%
Tom Perez: 15.2%
Tim Kaine: 11.4%
Sherrod Brown: 7.6%

There's been lots of speculation about Warren, and these other names, as Hillary's running mate. It's been reported that Hillary will announce her Vice Presidential pick on Friday, July 22 in Florida. No matter who Hillary chooses, whether it's someone on this list or someone else, we all know that that person will be a great choice not only for Hillary but also for this country.
