Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is expected to name attorney, entrepreneur, and Democratic donor Nicole Shanahan as his running mate, according to a report from Mediaite, just days after it was reported that former Minnesota Gov. Jesse Ventura and New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers were on Kennedy’s vice presidential short list.

The ex-wife of Google co-founder Sergey Brin, Shanahan was partially responsible for the Kennedy 2024 Super Bowl ad last month.
