Nina Turner, a former Ohio state senator and a prominent surrogate for Bernie Sanders’s presidential campaign, is considering an offer to run for vice president on the Green Party’s national ticket, cleveland.com reported Sunday night.
Green Party presumptive nominee Jill Stein reached out to Turner, and she’s expected to make a decision in the new few days.
Some Sanders supporters wanted to place Turner’s name for nomination at last week’s Democratic convention as an alternative to Virginia Sen. Tim Kaine, whom Hillary Clinton picked as her running mate.
